Running Samba 2.2 as a PDC...
Supposedly it can let Windows 2000 SP2 machines connect to it.
Unfortunately, I'm having problems. I can browse the shares
(like \\horizon works) however joining the domain is a different story.
I end up with a "Specificed user does not exist" error.
User DOES exist,
[usr/local/samba/lib]>>>grep -v "^;" smb.conf | sed -e "/^[ ]*$/d"
[global]
netbios name = horizon
workgroup = realm
Domain Admin group = @domain_admins
log level = 2
os level = 1000
preferred master = yes
domain master = yes
local master = yes
smb passwd file= /usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes
domain logons = yes
[netlogon]
path = /usr/export/netlogon
public = no
writeable = no
write list = @domain_admins
[profiles]
path = /usr/export/ntprofile
writeable = yes
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
[secure]
path = /usr/export/secure
writeable = yes
username = administrator
[/usr/local/samba/lib]>>>groups administrator
administrator domain_admins
Entries were created using smbpasswd and the user physically exists.
I can logon to the domain no problem in Windows 98
[/usr/local/samba/lib]>>>smbd -V
Version 2.2.1a
The what's new file that came with it does specify that they have
fixed stuff to allow win2k to logon to a samba PDC. Has anyone had
any luck with this or can they tell me where I'm going wrong?
Thanks,
Phil.
