Once again, I'm using samba 3.0.2a. The line in smb.conf that reads: ldap machine suffix = ou=Hosts (or it can be ou=Computers) has basically no effect. I think samba doesnt take it into account. When it looks for the registered computers in the domain, it was looking in the People group, not the computers group... so, if you are using the IDEALX scripts, and this version of samba, make sure that in smbldap_conf.pm has $computersou = q(People); Also, just in case, I made the ldap machine suffix line in smb.conf to ou=People. It seems to work! :) Does anybody here know if this is a bug? or if its fixed in the latest versions? - David -- David Caplan <david at david.ath.cx> Key fingerprint: AADC 53B6 D5FB 31FE E191 4E9A 8D5D 2952 9358
