Hello, I have a problem regarding samba-3.0 (alpha24 on RedHat 9) and Windows XP professional clients. Samba is in PDC mode with LDAP backend. All other windows clients (incl. 2000) working properly. I can join the domain with XP client successfully (says "welcome to domain"), but when I try to log into domain it says "The computer can not log you on now, because the domain is currently unavailable". Another (but not as big) problem is about primary groups of users. They are recognized correctly by Linux (coming from LDAP) but not from Samba or Windows. I created correct group mappings via net groupmap but the 2000 user manager still shows the wrong primary group. If I try to change it from user manager it seems that everything is working, but if I list primary groups again (after closing user manager) nothing has happened. LDAP entries have the correct sambaPrimaryGroupSID entries with correct algorithm used (RID=1000+2*uid or RID=1001+2*gid). Any help would be very appreciated.
