Hi, I'm trying to connect to a Samba Domain Member, but I always end up with the same strange error. The PDC (authenticating againt LDAP) and the server itself (Lobo) are Samba 3.0.2a-1 (Debian). I first tried to connect from my Windows client. It gave me the following error: "\\Lobo is not accessible. The specified network name is no longer available." When connecting via smbclient I get: xyz:~# smbclient -U nfechner \\\\lobo\\software\\ Password: session setup failed: Call returned zero bytes (EOF) With Log Level 3, I always get the same error message: [2004/02/26 11:41:29, 3] libsmb/namequery_dc.c:rpc_dc_name(143) rpc_dc_name: Returning DC SAVANNAH (192.168.200.3) for domain PONTON [2004/02/26 11:41:29, 3] libsmb/cliconnect.c:cli_start_connection(1337) Connecting to host=SAVANNAH [2004/02/26 11:41:29, 3] lib/util_sock.c:open_socket_out(710) Connecting to 192.168.200.3 at port 445 [2004/02/26 11:41:30, 3] rpc_parse/parse_lsa.c:lsa_io_sec_qos(181) lsa_io_sec_qos: length c does not match size 8 [2004/02/26 11:41:30, 3] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(219) check_ntlm_password: Checking password for unmapped user [PONTON]\[nfechner]@[SAVANNAH] with the new password interface [2004/02/26 11:41:30, 3] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(222) check_ntlm_password: mapped user is: [PONTON]\[nfechner]@[SAVANNAH] [2004/02/26 11:41:30, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:push_sec_ctx(256) push_sec_ctx(0, 0) : sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 1 [2004/02/26 11:41:30, 3] smbd/uid.c:push_conn_ctx(287) push_conn_ctx(0) : conn_ctx_stack_ndx = 0 [2004/02/26 11:41:30, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:set_sec_ctx(288) setting sec ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 1 [2004/02/26 11:41:30, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:pop_sec_ctx(386) pop_sec_ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 0 [2004/02/26 11:41:30, 3] libsmb/namequery_dc.c:rpc_dc_name(143) rpc_dc_name: Returning DC SAVANNAH (192.168.200.3) for domain PONTON [2004/02/26 11:41:30, 3] libsmb/cliconnect.c:cli_start_connection(1337) Connecting to host=SAVANNAH [2004/02/26 11:41:30, 3] lib/util_sock.c:open_socket_out(710) Connecting to 192.168.200.3 at port 445 operation is not possible without initialized secure memory (you may have used the wrong program for this task) Any help would be appreciated. I already reinstalled the samba and rejoined it to the domain. Tnx in advance, Nicholas
