Hi, I'm running Samba 2.2.3a as a PDC on RH7.3 with the clients being XP Pro laptops. If I try using the groups administration options locally to add the domain admin group to the local machine administrator groups the system fails saying incomplete information was returned for the domain admin group. My /etc/group file contains a line:- smbadm:x:506:rhorton,ndawson My /etc/samba/smb.conf domain admin group = @smbadm The two memebers of the smbadm group are both also normal samba users and can log on so not sure what XP is moaning about... -- Richard Horton KeCrypt Limited (http://www.kecrypt.com), Tel: +44 (0) 1438 791026 Fax: +44 (0) 1438 791086 Mob: +44 (0) 7789 007785 --- Avast: Outbound message checked to be virus-free Date and time of the test: 27/06/2002 08:50:51 Virus database (VPS) date: 20/06/2002 Avast! antivirus by Alwil Software
