from a Samba PDC, (samba-2.2.4_1) and it works fine. Did you create separate machine accounts for each machine in /etc/passwd? Does the 2nd machine report that it has joined the domain? We have about 50 XP machines here running from 2.2.4_1 and working fine. Here is the top of my smb.conf file... # Global parameters [global] workgroup = GROUP1 netbios name = UnixServer server string = Fileserver interfaces = 192.168.100.244/24 10.20.20.1 encrypt passwords = Yes domain logons = Yes domain master = Yes preferred master = Yes local master = Yes wins support = Yes os level = 65 logon script = %U.bat security = user logon drive = H: logon home = \\NEP-Unix\%u domain admin group = @wheel Hope this helps, Jim -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
