I found out, that the reason Win2000 clients could not connect to Samba, was because Win2000 uses an unknown uid to log the machine on the samba domain. Which uid do Win2000 use? Right now, I have set "Restrict Anonymous False" to permit Win2000 clients to connect. Previously I have used some scripts to add network drives etc. in netlogon. Win2000 do not seem to call these scripts. Any good ideas, how to solve this easily? Right now I'm using "logon script = %g.bat". This enables me to use different scripts for different users based on their primary group. Regards Jacob
Hi, I've setup samba as a PDC i think ( followed the PDC-howto ), and when i try to log in with my win2000 : My Computer -> Network Identification tab -> Properties -> Member of : Domain ( smb.conf = WORKGROUP ), click on OK then i get Domain Username and Password ( i enter them and click ok ) I get : Specified domain does not exist .... Is this my win2000 that gives the message or Samba ? This is my smb.conf : [global] null passwords = no log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m loglevel = 2 debug timestamp = yes bind interfaces only = yes max log size = 250 interfaces = 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 domain master = yes add user script = /usr/sbin/adduser -g machines -c NTMachine -d /dev/null -s /bin/false -n '%m$' delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel %m$ locking = yes domain logons = yes preferred master = yes encrypt passwords = yes password level = 0 logon path = \\PDC\profile\%U serverstring = Samba on %L hosts allow = 10. localhost workgroup = SERVICES smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd logon script = %U.bat socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192 read raw = yes write raw = yes netbios name = PDC load printers = no local master = yes security = user os level = 65 oplocks = True deadtime = 1 lock directory = /tmp/samba [netlogon] allow hosts = 10. max connections = 8 comment = The domain logon service path = /home/samba/scripts browseable = no [profile] comment = User profiles path = /home/samba/profiles create mode = 0600 directory mode = 0700 writeable = yes browseable = no ??
