Hello! Ok, recently upgraded from Samba 2.2.3a to 2.999+3.0.alpha20-2. After successfully joining the Win2k SP3 machine to the Samba PDC, I'm unable to log in. The error I get is the following: "The system cannot log you on to this domain because the system's computer account in its primary domain is missing or the password on that account is incorrect" According to the docs, these are the steps I need to take. useradd -g 100 -d /dev/null -c "irvpc" -s /bin/false irvpc$ passwd -l irvpc$ smbpasswd -a -m irvpc So, before the upgrade, I could look at smbpasswd to see if the machine accounts where created successfully and if there were any duplicates. However, with this new version, all machine accounts are stored in a .tdb format. How can one go about looking at the contents of the .tdb files and which file should I be looking at? Sorry, I don't find any information on the .tdb files in the docs. Maybe someone can point me to some. Really appreciate any help...Thanks! IRV

I believe you can configure samba to continue to use smbpasswd and passwd with a passdb backend = smbpasswd in your conf file> Sorry, I don't find any information on the .tdb files in the docs. > Maybe someone can point me to some.you can sort of see what there with strings name.tdb brad
I have a feeling this can be a cache problem. Anyone have a clue about which .tdb can be erased or how to clear cache in Samba 3.0 Alpha 20-2? -----Original Message----- From: samba-admin@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-admin@lists.samba.org] On Behalf Of Irving Carrion Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 9:48 AM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] Problem Logging in to Samba PDC Hello!

I'm having the same problem, everything was working fine, my Win 2k machines were logging on to the Samba domain, when I upgraded to SP3 the newly upgrade machines failed to log on. The error I was getting was access denied. Machine account does not exist etc. I removed each machine from the domain cleaned up the machine accounts within Samba and tried re-joining the domain with no luck. The Win2K machines that I didn't upgrade have no issues neither do the two Win 98 machines. I have the same problem when I try to join an XP machine to domain, is it possible that Microsoft has done something in XP and SP3 to stop these machines joining a Samba domain?
