Hi All, come acrross a curious issue with 3.0.1-2 from Debian unstable. Looks like a bug of sorts to me... Have a PDC configured and basically working well, apart from single recurrent issue that keeps popping up in the logs below, related to failure or breaking of remote procedure calls. The pipes more often break when using the UNC path as opposed to IP. couldn't find service netlogon [2004/01/29 10:20:34, 0] rpc_server/srv_pipe.c:api_pipe_netsec_process(1371) failed to decode PDU [2004/01/29 10:20:34, 0] rpc_server/srv_pipe_hnd.c:process_request_pdu(605) process_request_pdu: failed to do schannel processing. Users can logon, group security settings are honoured, passwords can be changed etc etc, just the share connections sometimes fail & drop out as does mmc computer management. Attempts to remap using the machine name generally fail once this has occurred, using the IP address generally works. Here's the global section... # Global parameters [global] workgroup = DOMAINNAME server string = My Domain Controller interfaces = eth0, lo bind interfaces only = Yes obey pam restrictions = No passdb backend = tdbsam, guest passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n . syslog = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 printcap name = cups add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 100 -s /bin/false -M %u delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdle %u add group script = /usr/sbin/groupadd %g delete group script = /usr/sbin/groupdel %g add user to group script = /usr/sbin/adduser %u %g delete user from group script = /usr/sbin/deluser %u %g set primary group script = /usr/sbin/usermod -g '%g' '%u' add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -g 100 -d /dev/null -s /bin/false -M %u && /usr/bin/passwd -l %u domain logons = Yes os level = 65 preferred master = Yes domain master = Yes dns proxy = No wins support = Yes ldap ssl = no panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d admin users = root, lewis printer admin = root, lewis printing = cups Any ideas what's happening here?
