Thank You for Samba - It's working very well as File Server (Tested 2.03 - almost 2 years and work great !) Last week I've set up my file server as NT - PDC (Samba 2.2.1a) under Linux 7.2 and I have some question about NT/2k ws clients. I have already the linux accounts for every computer who can use the Samba and log on Windows NT Domain from 95, 98, Me works fine. If I want to join to domain from a NT (2000) ws I have to set up a new linux account with user$ and to add to samba passwd as you describe in HOWTO. Question : Can I use the account already created (with them rights) without create a new one ? I have user who log on domain from 98 ws or from 2000 ws and I wish to have a global acces to resources without set a new user for NT/2000 ws. Now the message at join to domain from 2000 ws is : <<The acount used is a computer account. Use your global user account or local user account to acces this server>> It's possible ? Thnk You and Keep It Up ! Claudiu CIULEI network engineer ROMCAB SA 4300, Voinicenilor nr 35, Targu - Mures, Romania e-mail cciulei@paneuro.ro
