Om the local network (all server NT4) i have a single linux box with samba (2.2.4). For this box is in the NT4 domain a computer (workstation) account created, so that shares on samba can be used with auth. from the domain. The weird thing is that samba also is creating accounts for itself that is a server, which may validate users for the domain. It create secure channels to the PDC. And this for all the netbios alliases that samba has. What causes this? Lennard
