I have Samba 3.0.24 running on CentOS 4 as a PDC with an LDAP backend. 
When I first set everything up, I could join workstations to the domain 
automatically with the  Windows Network ID Wizard. Now when I try to 
join a workstation I get:
    Your computer could not be joined to the domain because the
    following error has occurred:
    The user name could not be found.
If I add the computer name to the domain manually from the command line 
or with LDAP Account Manager, then go back and join it, it works. But it 
sure would be nice not to have to set up each machine manually. Any 
thoughts?

Hi... Sorry if I was wrong. I just want to ask, did you join the machine (via windows machine) using root account? If it's true, then I guess you have to have samba password for your root. If you have made it before, try to recreate your root's samba password (with smbldap-passwd), then try to join the machine. Let me know if it failed. :) Regards, sato On 3/24/07, Jason Baker <jbaker@glastender.com> wrote:> > I have Samba 3.0.24 running on CentOS 4 as a PDC with an LDAP backend. > When I first set everything up, I could join workstations to the domain > automatically with the Windows Network ID Wizard.

I actually thought that was a feature. Thanks for starting the thread. John
