Hi all, I was wondering if any of you could help me out. I am not a Samba user although we have several instances of Samba running in our organization. We are running into a problem with Samba machines locking out user accounts in our Windows 2000 domain. I have found a little information about this but nothing in depth. The Samba servers are configured to use security=server and are using our domain controllers as password servers. Every time a user accesses one of the samba boxes 2 incorrect password attempts is logged on the Windows 2000 domain controller. Apparently security=domain resolves this but if possible I would like an explanation of why Samba tries to use an incorrect password the first 2 times it tries to validate the user? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...Chris ********************************************************************* The information contained in this communication is confidential, is intended only for the use of the recipient named above, and may be legally privileged.
