[Samba] get_md4pw: Workstation PC-WINSIC$: no account in domain
hello to all i use a samba server (3.0.14a) PDC which makes the users and computers authentication on a LDAP server (openldap on debian sarge) (people branch and computers branch).. does somebody had this problem? when a user connects from a PC which is in a windows domain, the authentication doesn't succeed for the following reason the error message is (translated from french message by me, sorry): "windows can't connect to the domain because the domain controler doesn't work or your computer account has not been found" (original french message) "windows ne peut pas se connecter au domaine car le controleur de domaine ne fonctionne pas est indisponible ou votre compte d'ordinateur n'a pas ?t? trouv?" but: 1. my ldap server seems to be functionnal, it answers to queries 2. my samba server is also operationnal it seems that at logon time, samba doens't find the computer name in the computer branch of the ldap server... But it's in! example of log: [2006/03/29 17:54:26, 4] passdb/pdb_ldap.c:ldapsam_getsampwnam(1334) ldapsam_getsampwnam: Unable to locate user [PC-WINSIC$] count=0 2006/03/29 17:54:26, 0] rpc_server/srv_netlog_nt.c:get_md4pw(244) get_md4pw: Workstation PC-WINSIC$: no account in domain whereas this pc-winsic$ computer is well in the computer branch, and i can query my ldap server for this entry! I rebuild my ldap database, i started again ldap and samba server, without more success i can't find the origin of the problem.. the only solution i found is to remove the computer from the domain, reboot, re enter the computer in the domain.. and it works! but i can't make this operation for my several tens of computer! do you know this problem? is there a central solution which can solve the problem without acting on each client computer? many thanks for help ML -- Maurice Libes Tel : +33 (04) 91 82 93 25 Centre d'Oceanologie de Marseille Fax : +33 (04) 91 82 65 48 UMS2196 CNRS- Campus de Luminy, Case 901 mailto:maurice.libes@com.univ-mrs.fr F-13288 Marseille cedex 9 Annuaire : annuaire.univmed.fr/showuser.php?uid=libes -- Maurice Libes Tel : +33 (04) 91 82 93 25 Centre d'Oceanologie de Marseille Fax : +33 (04) 91 82 65 48 UMS2196 CNRS- Campus de Luminy, Case 901 mailto:maurice.libes@com.univ-mrs.fr F-13288 Marseille cedex 9 Annuaire : annuaire.univmed.fr/showuser.php?uid=libes
