Running: RedHat 9, Samba 2.2.7a Installed with the included RPMs from RedHat. I sent a message yesterday about issues with wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g returning the error: "Error looking up domain users" and "Error looking up domain groups" respectively. I have determined that i believe the issue is with the authentication that my system is trying using, if i run: wbinfo -a 'DOM\\user%password' (I have tried differenct sperators in a number of different ways) I recieve: Could not authenticate user DOM\\user%password with plaintext password I have seen other posts mentioning a challenge/response request being sent, what am i missing here? Any help is appreciated :) [global] workgroup = DOM netbios name = LINUXFILESERVER server string = LINUX Samba Server security = DOMAIN encrypt passwords = Yes min passwd length = 7 map to guest = Bad User obey pam restrictions = Yes password server = * passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n *passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully* username map = /etc/samba/smbusers log level = 5 log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 0 large readwrite = No name resolve order = wins lmhosts host bcast socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 printcap name = cups domain admin group = Domain Admins domain guest group = Domain Guests preferred master = No local master = No domain master = No dns proxy = No wins server = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx winbind uid = 10000-20000 winbind gid = 10000-20000 winbind separator = \ printer admin = root hosts allow = xxx.xxx.xxx. xxx.xxx.xxx. printing = cups hide unreadable = Yes [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = No create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 browseable = No [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba printable = Yes browseable = No [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /etc/samba/drivers write list = root
