[Samba] samba 3 ads/domain member server has some problems
hi, after we migrate our samba server SERVER from 2.x to 3.0.4 (which was not so easy and I can recommend everyone the convmv tool to convert the old filenames to the new one utf8), and we (finaly) able to join to the ADS server (the samba server is a simple ADS memeber server). we have a few problems: - the win2000 clients can see the shares on the samba server if and only if they are member of the same domain and the user login to the same domain as the samba server. ie. if we has DOM1 and the win2000 client login to local workstation (or other domain) rather than the domain of the samba server the we got the following error: "\\SERVER is not accessible. The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed." - another problem is that the win9x clients are no longer able to connect to the samba sever. they alway got a prompt for the password for \\SERVER\IPC$. but of course they don't know such a password. - the worst thing is that I try to use samba 3.0.4 as security = DOMAIN rather then the new ADS, but it's even worst! it seems that samba 3 is no longer able to take part as a NT style domain member in an ads enviroment (while at the same time samba 2 is able to do that and can be used from both win9x and win2000 clients. does anyone has any success with samba 3 or with the above problems. it would be very important for us. thank in advance for any help. yours. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"
