Hi,
I'm in the process of setting up Samba 2.2.2 as a PDC and the boss has been
reasonably impressed with it.
An issue that we've come up against is machine trust accounts. Our PC labs
(running W2k) are rebuilt nightly or on demand via Rembo. This is done to keep a
clean and consistant install on the machines at all times.
I suspect that this will cause the trust account relationship (passwording
between the client and PDC) to break each time a rebuild happens and no-one will
be able to log in. Am I right in this assessment (we haven't converted a lab
to test yet), and if so, is there a way around it?
Also, is there a way to turn off machine trust accounts on the Samba PDC? I
haven't found a reason for their absolute necessity as yet.
Apologies if this has been covered extensively before, pointers to source
material would be appreciated.
Regards,
Antony.
