Hi, I have a TNG-controlled domain which works fine with Win2k and samba 2.2.7 workstations. Now when I try to join a samba 3.0 workstation to this domain doing: net rpc join -U abakus\\root it fails. Setting the log level to 10 I get a lot of debug messages on the console including: ... [2003/03/13 15:49:43, 4] rpc_client/cli_pipe.c:check_bind_response(1075) bind_rpc_pipe: pipe_name \PIPE\lsass != expected pipe \PIPE\lsarpcd. oh well! [2003/03/13 15:49:43, 2] rpc_client/cli_pipe.c:rpc_pipe_bind(1243) rpc_pipe_bind: check_bind_response failed. ... could not initialise lsa pipe could not obtain sid for domain This seems as if 3.0 and TNG have different ideas of what the pipe should be called and I don't know who's fault this is. Any comments on this from the samba or tng developers would be welcome. Thanks Uli
