[Samba] Errors encountered joining Active Directory domain
I am using Debian Sarge with samba 3.0.20b-2 installed. I have a Windows server 2003 with Active Directory installed. The window's machine name is server2knew.ENTERPRISE.CXM. I can connect and log into the domain from a WinXP client. I used the smb.conf file and nsswitch.conf file as listed in the Samba3 by Example (Chapter 7). testparm appears ok except for the line that reads: template primary group = "Domain Users" is missing from the output I then ran the command: root:/# net ads join -U Administrator%<password> this returned the following output: [2005/11/17 22:46:52, 0] param/loadparm.c:map_parameter(2544) Unknown parameter encountered: "template primary group" [2005/11/17 22:46:52, 0] param/loadparm.c:lp_do_parameter(3285) Ignoring unknown parameter "template primary group" [2005/11/17 22:46:53, 0] libads/kerberos.c:ads_kinit_password(146) kerberos_kinit_password Administrator@ENTERPRISE.CXM failed: Cannot resolve network address for KDC in requested realm [2005/11/17 22:46:53, 0] utils/net_ads.c:ads_startup(191) ads_connect: Cannot resolve network address for KDC in requested realm I appreciate any help with this problem.
