I keep getting this error when trying to do a" net ads join" or "net ads status". I am trying to get samba 3.07 to join win 2003 domain. I have been working at this for quite some time. I just installed fresh box with latest kerberos, openldap and samba on redhat 9 box. Any help/hints would ease my pain. Here is my smb.conf: (which I copied from Samba-3 by Example) [global] log file = /var/log/samba/%m ldap ssl = no idmap gid = 10000-20000 wins server = mydc.mydomain.com username map = /etc/samba/smbusers realm = MYDOMAIN.COM template shell = /bin/bash template primary group = "Domain Users" printing = cups server string = My Server idmap uid = 10000-20000 workgroup = MYDOMAIN os level = 20 printcap name = CUPS security = ads syslog = 0 unix charset = LOCALE winbind separator = + max log size = 50 log level = 1 use spnego = yes [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = No browseable = No [printers] comment = SMB Print Spool path = /var/spool/samba guest ok = Yes printable = Yes browseable = No [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /var/lib/samba/drivers admin users = root, Administrator write list = root
