Ok. Simple questions: What is NETLOGON in respect to Samba authentication? Further, what is NET_AUTH2 and NET_SAMLOGON which are RPCs of NETLOGON? Finally, how can I make the system try NET_SAMLOGON before NET_AUTH2? I am getting significant login delays b/c samba hangs with NET_AUTH2 as the RPC, but works immediately with the NET_SAMLOGON protocol after about a 20 second wait for the user.
