[Samba] Joining an AD domain where AD domain name != DNS domain name
Hi all, I found a nice cheatsheet (http://blogs.sun.com/jurasek/) for setting up Samba on my Solaris 10. Problem is, that document is pretty explicit about the AD domain and DNS domain being the same. The problem with *that* is, when we moved to AD, the AD domain (and therefore AD DNS domain) was implemented as "company.corp" rather than our real DNS domain "company.com". All my *nix boxes are in company.com, not company.corp. Is this a problem? And is there a way around it? My preferred solution to to get rid of the company.corp abomination, but that isn't going to happen. Thanks, Mark -- Georgia: Why am I not doing what they're doing?
