Having trouble getting Samba 3.0.24 on Debian Stable to join an Active Directory domain. I previously thought the problem stemmed from an earlier bug that has been fixed in 3.0.23 that required a user to have full Admin rights. I do not have full admin rights. I do have rights to add machines which I do regularily. Read through Samba ADS Domain Membership. Below is my kinit, smb.conf and debug from my join attempt. Thanks for any advice, Mike $ kinit -V mmaki Password for mmaki@ABC.DEF.NET: Authenticated to Kerberos v5 $ sudo testparm Load smb config files from /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf Processing section "[data]" Loaded services file OK.
