I've followed the instructions in the DUAL-SAMBA-HOWTO to try to install a Dual Samba system. I'm running Redhat 7.0 (awaiting my 7.3 in the post). I've installed it, added the user `CSMSRV-HEAD$' to both linux and also, using 'samedit' to TNG. This is the name of my HEAD samba server running. I've changed the security = share, and the server works on the network. I can browse shares. I've changed it to =domain and run 'net rpc join -S csmsrv-tng' and loads of stuff whizzed past the screen, ending in something along the lines of OK. I'm presuming that much went ok. I added a user on the system (csm) using samedit. 'createuser csm -p test'. It said it went ok. (while I'm talking about that - could anyone tell me what '-i' does?). When I tried running 'ntlogin csmnet2\csm' (the name of the domain is csmnet2, as my old 2.2 domain is still running as csmnet). I am asked for the password, I type in test and I get auth2 challenge failed, unsuccessful etc. That's confuses me, as when I add a machine account and join a computer to the domain, I can log in as CSM. I can't do the 'smbclient //csmsrv-head/test -U csm', as that doesn't work. Same authorisation failed (it is set up to use csmsrv-tng as the password server). I can't access \\csmsrv-head on my windows pc - although \\csmsrv-tng works fine. HEAD says I don't have access, check with administrator etc. Any ideas welcomed!!! -- C.S.Mager charlie@csmager.co.uk
