Hi! I tried to join a samba client to a samba pdc (tried Windows as well). smbpasswd -U root -r server -j stuttgart (stuttgart being the domain and server the netbios server name). The operation fails with an acess denie message. In the logs of the server I can see that the password check failed, and the password length is incorrect. However, the password I used for root is the root password on server and the smbpassword for root on server. Has anyone an idea, what could be the problem? Thanks alot in advance, Rudolf
