[Samba] Smaba fileserver with NT4 PDC (with a bad NT domainename)
Hello, I have set up a samba fileserver (v2.2.3a). Users shall not log in into the shares by beeing a local linux user but by beeing autenticated against a NT4 PDC. So far I have managed to create the fileservers machine account but I have a "Secret is bad" problem. I think this is because the NT domaine name has a german special character in it (the ö) that is not corrctly submited from the console? First idea was to change the NT domaine name but this seems to be a big problem due to over a 100 workstations hanging in that domaine. MS specialists told us that it might be possible to change but we should not do it ... Is there a possible work around? Sorry if this might be not very precise or dumb but this is my first posting to that list. Best Regards! C.
