Hi. in my pcd with the following config: [global] workgroup = DOMAIN netbios name = brain server string = Controlador de dominio passdb backend = tdbsam os level = 35 debug level = 10 max log size = 50 log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log # PDC domain logons = Yes preferred master = yes domain master = Yes logon drive = H: logon home = \\%L\%u\.w9xprfl # Usuarios y passwords smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd encrypt passwords = yes username map = /etc/samba/smbusers unix password sync = Yes # Programas auxiliares y scripts passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*UNIX*password* %n\n *ReType*new*UNIX*password* %n\n *passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully* add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m %u delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel -r %u add group script = /usr/sbin/groupadd %g delete group script = /usr/sbin/groupdel %g add user to group script = /usr/sbin/usermod -G %g %u add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false \ -d /dev/null %u # Note: The following specifies the default logon script. logon script = %G.bat # This sets the default profile path. Set per user paths with pdbedit logon path = \\%L\profiles\mswprfl # Impresi'on printcap name = cups cups options = raw printing = cups load printers = no printer admin = xavier,@root, root, @ntadmin, administrator # Winbind idmap uid = 15000-20000 idmap gid = 15000-20000 # winbind separator = + #winbind enable local accounts = no #winbind trusted domains only = yes #template primary group = "Domain Users" # Misc. #admin users = xavier,root, @root #security = user #getwd cache = yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 nt status support = yes template shell = /bin/bash wins support = yes #template homedir = /home/winnt/%D/%U ... when I run the following cmds. in this server then a mssg. like this appear: [root@brain samba]# net rpc join Password: Joined domain DOMAIN. [root@brain samba]# net rpc testjoin Join to 'IBCINC' is OK but when I do: [root@brain samba]# wbinfo -t checking the trust secret via RPC calls failed error code was (0x0) Could not check secret WINBINDD is not running, should I run winbind in this server???? well, when I run winbind then: [root@brain samba]# service winbind start Iniciando servicios Winbind: [ OK ] [root@brain samba]# wbinfo -t checking the trust secret via RPC calls succeeded OK, but then I do: [root@brain samba]# wbinfo -u Error looking up domain users Why????? I need to use ntlm_auth in squid, do I need winbindd running in the server??? squid and samba (PDC) are running in the same server.
