Hey there,
I have configured samba to behave as a DC "by the book" (by the howto
in
fact...).
Everything seems to work fine, I am using windows XP clients, I have
changed the registry settings like the howto says, rebooted and then added
the station. I have managed to log into the machine with a domain user and
everything looked great, when I tried adding the domain user to the local
admins by:
login in as local administrator.
go the users/group profile and open the administrators group.
(I saw MYDOMAINNAME\domain admins there so the station registration process
looks good)
I then tried to add my user by adding it with and without the domainname\
as a prefix I tried adding domain users as well with no success, nothing
seems to work here.
I did the same many times in my office where I have a windows DC and it
always worked, what have I missed here?
Another thing is that it pops up to ask for the domain admin password, now
- maybe I forgot it but I don't remember this happening with the windows DC.
smbd.log shows:
[2003/04/13 19:36:12, 2] rpc_server/srv_samr_nt.c:_samr_lookup_domain(2050)
Returning domain sid for domain XXXXXXXXX ->
S-X-X-XX-XXXXXXXXXXX-2XX5XXXXX5-2XXX5X2XX
(censored domain name and sid out... sorry)
log level is only 2 but when I tried putting it on 5 it didn't give too
much useful info...
A possible workaround could be simply adding everyone to the domain admins
group, does that involves adding the corresponding unix users to the root
group? I would really hate to do that...
Some details on the environment...
i386 machine running slack-current (9.0 + all latest patches)
samba 2.2.8a
Linux 2.4.20
