Hi
I have recently set-up Samba 3.0.10-0.1 on Suse 9.1. All is working
fine, I can create users, groups, see my network shares, grant access to
them etc. Recently I have tried to set-up the Samba server as a PDC, I
have configured the smb.conf and from looking through different
tutorials and notes it seems to be correct. However when I try and add
a windows client to the domain I get an error in regards to the client
being unable to look up the domain name on the wins server.
As far as I can make out I have configured the samba server correctly to
be a wins server by adding the wins support = Yes to the smb.conf file
however for some reason I am still unable to verify the domain name via
the client. I do not think this is a client issue as it is able to join
a different Samba domain on a different network. Below is my smb.conf
file I was hoping someone could help.
/[global]
workgroup = TEST
passwd chat = *New*Password* %n\n*Re-enter*new*password* %n\n
*Password*changed*
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
syslog = 0

add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m '%u'
delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel -r '%u'

[finsvcs]

Can anybody see what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
