Hi, I would like to solve this (simply?) problem: I want to act SUN Solaris samba server (3.0.2a) as domain member in Windows 2000 domain. I made those steps described in documentation: 1. manual creation of Machine Trust Accounts (MTA) 2. in smb.conf: -> security = domain -> workgroup = muxo -> password server = * (I think I don't need add line for on-the-fly creation MTA, when it was done mannualy !?) -> homes sections like this: [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = yes writable = yes guest ok = yes valid users = %S 3. succesfully joining to domain PDC: /usr/local/samba/bin/net join -S DOMPDC -U admin 4. restarting samba server 5. there are also some home directories on solaris server with domain-names-users and I expected that domain users could see the solaris homes and read from there. But the samba acts like this: 1. when domain user (not previously created in solaris /etc/passwd) tries to attempt to samba server from network client: He gets the errors in log file: [2004/04/07 09:52:53, 0] auth/auth_util.c:make_server_info_info3(1100) make_server_info_info3: pdb_init_sam failed! 2. when domain user (previously also created in solaris /etc/passwd) tries to attempt to samba server from network client: He can reach only his home folder. How to solve the problem, or let me know the easy smb.conf to work like samba domain member. Thanks HRom
