Morning, Well I ordered a Windows Server 2008 Standard for a need around here and after just spending an hour with Dell support (nice fellow, not his fault) I find that now the 2008 Server is too *new* for the Samba NT4 PDC model. I got this box joined fine with my domain, but any time I try to log into it over RDP, and the new box authenticates with samba (and samba talks to OpenLDAP) the box boots with an 'lsass' error. The Dell fellow has two suggestions, either redesign my network to use AD instead of OpenLDAP moving the PDC away from samba, or create and use local accounts on the new box. Local accounts is what I've been getting away from. Any thoughts, suggestions, help on how to make this new box work with samba or a different direction I should go? Mike

This might just be a bug fixed in a later version, or fixable. Simo. -- Simo Sorce Samba Team GPL Compliance Officer <simo@samba.org> Principal Software Engineer at Red Hat, Inc. <simo@redhat.com>
