Hi
this is really a last resort as I'm literally pulling my hair
out over AIX and Samba and cannot find any threads on this particular
issue.
Basically we have 3 systems running AIX 5.1 and Samba 2.2.7
We upgraded one system to Aix 5.2 and everything works no problem.
Upgraded the next two and both will not join the domain using
the smbpasswd -j domain-name -r ny0000000 -U myaccount.
After the password is entered they just hang even although I can query
the domain using smbclient -L ny0000000 -U myaccount.
Tried re-installing etc and to no avail so now we're out of ideas and
really
need to get 5.2 working with Samba. Note also tried newer versions of
Samba too.
Any suggestions you may have would be great
Regards
Gerry

There was no need to rejoin. I don't know if it's too late for that, but potentially you could restore a backup of the samba install/private directory from before you tried to join and it should just work unless the machine password has already been changed. Other than that, once or twice my AIX samba got out of sync with the domain controller. I found I had to delete the old account on the PDC before attempting to create a new one from the command line. But don't do that until the backup fails to work. myaccount would need to be a domain admin. Regards, Doug
Hello all, We are configuring a SAMBA server with multipile Windows 2000 computers. We are using Debian Sarge (Testing) and using the SAMBA software (3.0.10) that comes with it. We have populated the smb.conf file with just the following: ===========================netbios name = server-cardiff workgroup = bda-cdf passdb backend = tdbsam os level = 65 preferred master = yes domain master = yes local master = yes security = user domain logons = yes =========================== and then started the server, and the log shows: Mar 16 19:23:44 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: [2005/03/16 19:23:44, 0] nmbd/nmbd_logonnames.c:become_logon_server_success(124) Mar 16 19:23:44 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: become_logon_server_success: Samba is now a logon server for workgroupBDA-CDF on subnet 10.3.1.3 Mar 16 19:23:44 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: [2005/03/16 19:23:44, 0] nmbd/nmbd_logonnames.c:become_logon_server_success(124) Mar 16 19:23:44 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: become_logon_server_success: Samba is now a logon server for workgroupBDA-CDF on subnet 10.3.1.3 Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: [2005/03/16 19:23:48, 0] nmbd/nmbd_become_dmb.c:become_domain_master_stage2(113) Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: ***** Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: Samba server SERVER-CARDIFF is now a domain master browser for workgroup BDA-CDF on subnet 10.3.1.3 Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: ***** Then I do an "smbpasswd -a piersk" and enter the password. All seems OK. Then take one Windows 2000 computer, go to System Properties, then Network Identification, then click on "Properties", select "domain" and type in "bda-cdf" and click on "OK" and after a while, it asks for the username and password, and I enter "piersk" as username, and then the password, and it always return an "Logon filure: unknown username or bad password" even tho "pdbedit -Lv | grep piers" shows an entey. We have been attacking this problem for several hours and we don't know what's wrong - we even tried debug level 3 but it's not showing anything helpful - does anyone have an idea where we are going wrong? Thanks very much for your help in advance Cheers - Piers
