Hello, I have a little problem with samaba... well... with windows nt, samba works fine. I'll try to explain it: My net has 2 servers with NT4, a pdc and a bdc. Well, my intentions is to eliminate de NT4 PDC and put a Samba PDC. So I made the next steps: 1-. In BDC, Administrative Tools - Server Administrators (i think) and there i select the BDC and click in the menu to "Eliminate from domain". -> Ok, 2-. I disconnect the NT4 PDC from the network and Connect de Samba PDC with the same ip and netbios name that the "old" NT4 PDC. Results ======= The users can log on the domain, (well... after theirs computers are added to de samba domain). BUT!, they cannot use the shared resources of the BDC (without the /user:<user> parameter of net use... net use f: \\BDC\shared /user:administrator... then works) I would like if possible that the users could navigate or see the shared resources of the BDC. +----+ Curiously, in the samba PDC i added the netbios name in smbpasswd and passwd and then the BDC (win nt4) is able to "view" the samba users in his administrative tool, but anyway, the users of samba logged on a winXP, 2k, etc, could not take the BDC's shared resources. So I write this email to ask if it is possible to use a BDC in Windows NT and a SAMBA PDC, or if i have to make a "silly" server in NT with his own user list and then the users have to have 2 passwords: one for samba and join the domain and other to "take" the shared resource of de "BDC". Thanks you all and be happy :) +------------------------------------+ ______ __ (, / ) , (__/ ) /---( _ _ _ _ _ / ) / ____)_(/_(_(_(/___(__(/_) / (_/ ( (_/ +-----------------------------------+ | Registered Linux User: 264283 | +-----------------------------------+
