Hi,
I am a newbie trying to make Samba work in my small home network. I have
configured the Linux machine (RH 7.2, Enigma) as the Domain PDC and log
on server, updated and synchronized the smbpasswd file with passwd file.
Yet, when I attempt to log on from windows 9.x machine I get either of
the following messages.
1. computer name invalid
2. incorrect password or log on server has denied access to you.
when I test the configuration by typing
1. smbclient -NL //win.9x machine, I get all the shares listed.
2. smbclient -NL //linux server, I get the following error message.
session setup failed: ERRSRV - ERRbadpw (Bad password - name/password
pair in a Tree Connect or Session Setup are invalid.).
All tests on win 9.x machines are OK.
Linux server does not let me set up a session .
Where am I going wrong??
Global section of my smb.conf is listed below.
[global]
remote announce = 192.168.0.255 192.168.2.44
interfaces = 192.168.0.1/24 127.0.0.1/24
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
domain master = True
printing = lprng
dns proxy = No
hosts equiv = /etc/hosts
protocol = NT1
logon path = \\%L\Profiles\%U
encrypt passwords = Yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192
wins support = true
hosts allow = 192.168.0.1-12/24 127.
password server = *
security = domain
domain logons = Yes
unix password sync = Yes
server string = Samba Server
workgroup = MOTHERINDIA.COM
netbios name = SHREE
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
guest account = pcguest
os level = 65
Please help.

Hi all, I am having trouble setting up samba to act as a PDC. I am fairly new to red hat linux, and have just installed RH 7.3 running the default configuration. I updated samba to 2.2.7 using the online updating feature and followed a step by step tutorial to configure samba to become a PDC. When i try to connect to the domain with windows XP pro, it displays the message "a domain controller for the domain mydomain can not be located" when i choose details it says The error was: "DNS request not supported by name server." (error code 0x0000232C RCODE_NOT_IMPLEMENTED) The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.mydomain The network is simple, one windows XP pro machine with IP 192.168.1.6 and one RH 7.3 linux machine with IP 192.168.1.5. Connections are working because both machines succuessfully ping each other. I ran testparm with no errors and have verified the samba server is running properly with "smbclient //mymachine/user -U user -W mydomain" I downloaded and ran the SignOrSeal reg patch for XP, and also disabled the "Domain member: Digitally encrypt or sign secure channel data (always)" option in the local security. I have triple checked the tutorial guide with my config file, and have manually created the required accounts What could be the problem? I have seen other people on this list with the same problem, but the threads seem to die out without a solution.
