Hello list, I'm trying to join the W2K domain, but without success. After typing the following line /usr/local/samba/bin/smbpasswd -j WORLD -r SRV5N -U adm Password: this message apears: Unable to join domain WORLD The content of smb.conf: [global] netbios name = SRVSX security = domain domain logons = yes workgroup= WORLD password server = SRV5N keep alive = 30 os level = 0 domain master = no local master = no preferred master = no username level = 8 password level = 8 encrypt passwords = yes interfaces = 138.244.15.21/255.255.0.0 wins server = 172.17.0.41 (os: solaris2.6, samba: 2.2.2) What's wrong? Thanks in advance Birgit
I have had this problem before. I did two things... Made sure smb is NOT running Delete the server in the domain via srvmgr.exe and then issue the command to join the domain. Hope this helps. -----Original Message----- From: Lehrnbecher-Hundt, Birgit [mailto:blehrnbe@helios.med.uni-muenchen.de] Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2002 7:56 AM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] Unable to join W2K domain Hello list, I'm trying to join the W2K domain, but without success.

You have 2 choices Choice 1 delete the machine from the domain using server manager on the PDC and then re-add the machine. Use smbpasswd as above but without the -U option choice 2 get the latest SAMBA_2_2 CVS code which has a fix for this.
