I am running samba-2.2.7a-7.9.0 on RedHat 9.0. The domain I am trying to join has a different name than the workgroup I am trying to leave. Below is a copy of the last two entries of the computer_name.log, which are created when I try to add the machine account. [2003/06/27 15:57:24, 0] rpc_server/srv_samr_nt.c:_api_samr_create_user(1929) User carroll-313cny4$ does not exist in system password file (usually /etc/passwd). Cannot add account without a valid local system user. [2003/06/27 15:57:26, 0] rpc_server/srv_netlog_nt.c:get_md4pw(176) get_md4pw: Workstation carroll-313cny4$: no account in domain tia, cmc
Yep, that's right. The windows account did not get created in Unix therefore, you cannot add it to the domain. What you need to do, I think, is create this line in your smb.conf: add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -g machines -s /bin/false -d /dev/null %u see if it helps.
