Hi, I have the same error message as Kristyan Osborne's original post. What
I did was I removed the machine account from smbpasswd and passwd and
created same account names, joined the domain again and somehow it worked
again. I am running Samba 2.2.5 and I was wondering if this could be a bug.
Regards,
Dominic

Hi,
I have a samba 3.0 current CVS from 01/08 running with ldap as the backend. It
been working fine for the past few week until late last week. I can join a
machine to the domain and I get an entry in ldap one in ou=3Dcomputers and one
in ou=3Dusers (as normal). Everything looks fine until you try to login to the
win2k box. When you hit enter after typing in username + passwd you get an error
message "The system could not log you on to this domain becasue the
system's computer account in its primary domain is missing or the password
on that account is incorrect."
I don't think i have changed anything to the config, but i cant belive it
just stops working. The machines which have been added prior to last week can
still logon to the network and work fine.
Can anyone suggest something??
Cheers
