Hello, I have Samba 3.0.4, OpenLDAP 2.0.27 (whatever comes with RH 9.0) configured as a PDC with LDAP as the password database. I can log on to the PDC box, ldap seems to be working fine with PAM. Password changes take affect etc. I can get passthru security working fine. I log into windows xp machine, browse home/profile shares, no problem. But I can't log on from the client xp machine to the domain represented by the PDC. I get "Make sure your password is correct.." I've turned off the PDC box and tried the same client log on and I get "domain controller not available" so I know it's going to the right box. I was able to join the client to the PDC domain. I've looked at the samba logs and the user I'm logging on to the windows xp machine seems to authenticate fine, atleast that's what the log says. I do have a line in there saying []\[]@[computer] can't authenticate user, but I don't know what that is so I don't know how to debug that problem. Anyway, I want to debug the problem, but I don't know how since I don't see an obvious problem in the log (other then the []\[] user problem and I don't know what that means or how to fix it) I've included my configuration files if anybody has a clue I would appreciate the help, TIA dougw pdbedit -v of the user I'm trying to log in as Unix username: testu NT username: testu Account Flags: [U ] User SID: S-1-5-21-2381800297-159120370-3622294204-31000 Primary Group SID: S-1-5-21-2381800297-159120370-3622294204-2028 Full Name: Test W.
