Hello Samba List, I'm running a Samba 3.0.22 PDC on Solaris 9. Things got a bit peculiar when I added a 2nd network interface. The two subnets are a primary network that carries all the client traffic and a tape-backup/admin network that is not accessible to any clients, ie. aaa.bbb.ccc.241 - bge0 - primary network (address suppressed) 192.168.254.254 - bge1 - admin/backup network I've configured Samba (I think) to ignore the admin network... socket address = aaa.bbb.ccc.241 interfaces = bge0 lo0 bind interfaces only = true hosts allow = aaa.bbb.ccc. , 127. However, some devices are getting the notion that there is a PDC at 192.168.254.254 and are trying to contact it (which of course they cannot). For instance (this is a NetApp that is a domain member): grunthos> cifs testdc ... Testing all Primary Domain Controllers found 2 unique addresses Fri May 12 09:56:55 EDT [auth.dc.trace.DCConnection.statusMsg:info]: AUTH: TraceDC- Found 2 BDC addresses through WINS. Fri May 12 09:56:55 EDT [auth.dc.trace.DCConnection.statusMsg:info]: AUTH: TraceDC- Found 2 PDC addresses through WINS. found PDC TRILLIAN at aaa.bbb.ccc.241 Not able to communicate with PDC 192.168.254.254 trying 192.168.254.254...Fri May 12 09:57:07 EDT [auth.dc.GetDCName.failed:error]: AUTH: Error 0x0 while trying to get Domain Controller name for 192.168.254.254: Timed out waiting for reply. ... I'd expect it to find only aaa.bbb.ccc.241 - Any idea what am I missing here? The PDC is also the WINS server, in case that matters.
