Hello, I am having some trouble logging a win2k box into a Samba 2.2.2 PDC. Win98,95, and ME boxes can log in fine. When I try and log in my win2k box I get this error: "The account used is a computer account. Use your global user account or local user account to access this server." Maybe someone can shed some light on this strange error?? I do have a user account set up on the samba server along with a machine account which I am told is needed. I can map drives manually off of the server I just cannot "log into" the PDC normally. Thanks for any help. If you need more info on this just let me know. thanks!! -Josh

[Samba] logging a win2k box into a Samba 2.2.2 PDC
Hi Josh. I can help here. You CAN't log in as a box (or so I presume. I was able to log into the samba domain fine when I put a administrator account in (and then added the samba domain users to my admin account (for myself...) Is this a wrong answer?>When I try and log in my win2k box I get this error:"The account used is a computer account. Use your global user account or local user account to access this server." ------------------------------------------------ -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
