Hi, I'm trying to add W2K workstation into Samba3 domain and get a message: 'username or password is incorrect' (or smth similar, my w2k is localized). 1. login is root, password is correct (i can access shared folders). 2. I use pure ldapsam passdb backend 3. I added user root to ldap and changed his uidNumber to 0 4. I joined user root to group Admins 5. root sambaSID is: S-1-5-21-1036508587-608570407-1912796235-500 6. root sambaPrimaryGroupSID is: S-1-5-21-1036508587-608570407-1912796235-512 7: Admins sambaSID is: S-1-5-21-1036508587-608570407-1912796235-512 8: net getlocalsid output: SID for domain ZYXEL is: S-1-5-21-1036508587-608570407-1912796235 9: I added machine account to LDAP. Problem with root's username/password doesn't occur when passdb backend = smbpasswd ldapsam, because I have a root account in smbpasswd with uid 0, but in this case samba adds workstations into smbpasswd!!! (despite the EXISTING machine account in LDAP). well, smbpasswd is not a problem, i'm just going to use ldap anyway Please help, I'm getting mad trying to build my domain back. Any hints appreciated. TIA
