Every machine with "passdb backend = ldapsam" creates its own entry, as every machine has its own user database. This is very much like the local SAM on Windows workstations where you can log in as local administrator. This won't happen if you don't set "passdb backend = ldapsam" and join the servers into the domain. Volker
