Hello, I have a linux computer (Red Hat 7.2) with samba 2.2.3a installed. I'm attempting to bring this linux computer with samba installed up as a pdc. My current smb.conf file is as follows. [global] workgroup = MEDCO security = DOMAIN encrypt passwords = yes domain admin group = @admins domain logons = true [home] [printers] [netlogon] path = /home/netlogon write list = @admins Seems pretty simple and straight forward. But when I try and add a WindowsXP computer to this domain, I keep getting either a user does not exist, or domain not found or could not be contacted error message. I added the appropriate users and trust accounts on the linux computer (Red Hat 7.2). If I try and access the files on the linux computer from the windows xp computer, I am able to do that. It's just when I try and add the windows xp computer to the domain that I am running into problems. If anyone could offer any input/help, I'd really appreciate it. Thank You!! .. :-) John Roman LAN Engineer 201-782-6770 john_roman@merckmedco.com -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
