Hi Samba List,
Iam new to this list and want to describe my *little* Problem.
We are using in our company an Network with roundabout 200 Clients
running W2k/SP2.
Our PDC is an W2k Server with Active Directory enabled. Any User is
connected to the Active Directory fine , and holds his Profile on this
PDC. As Home Share and one Public Share we use an Linux Box with SuSE
7.3 (kernel 2.4.10, samba 2.2.1a, fs is an LVM with 175 GB reiserfs over
3 disks). As Network Interface we use an D-LINK DFE-570-TX with 4-Port
incl. the mod_sch on the Kernel , so that all 4 Interfaces using the
same IP for Load Balancing. with FTP/SSH all seems to work fine on this
virtual Interface. The Linux Box has no Connection to the Internet so we
use an private Network 172.16.128.x/20 for 4096 unique addresses. The
security off the smb is set to "security=SERVER" and the
"password
server = 172.16.128.9" points to the W2k PDC. (see smb.conf below)
The Problem:
An User , who is attached to the DOMAIN on the PDC has sometimes (! not
ever! ) the following Problem:
the users logs on local on his w2k Box, and sometimes he will corect
connect to his drive H: ( Home directory) and drive Z: (public for all)
in 8 of ten connects the password server rejects the password (why ?)
and the user will connected as "nobody" to the samba server. in this
case , there will no drive H: and on Z: is only read-only access possible.
I've read all manuals and FAQ but there is no hint for this problem. is
there anybody here with the same problem and if , is there an solution
therefore ?????
The second Problem is , that in some cases the wins-Server on the PDC no
nmb lookup allows.
if i run "nmblookup arakis" (the pdc) will this correctly displayed.
the smb.conf:
[global]
