Hi all: We have an existing AD domain with about 500 windows systems in it. Our AD domain, EECS.AD.WSU.EDU, is different than our DNS domain: eecs.wsu.edu. We do have the DNS mappings for AD set up properly (actually, the domain controllers manage them), and all windows -> windows stuff works great. I am now trying to join a samba system so it can be the printserver to windows systems with domain authentication. When I try and join it, I get: Using short domain name -- EECS Failed to set servicePrincipalNames. Please ensure that the DNS domain of this server matches the AD domain, Or rejoin with using Domain Admin credentials. I have attempted both with my personal domain admin account and with the domain admin account with no difference. Some time ago (1.5-2yrs ago), I succeeded doing this, and the domain layout was the same then as now. As I recall, I joined the same way then, and "it just worked". How do I do it now? Changing domains to make them match is not an option at this time. Thanks! --Jim kusznir@eecs.wsu.edu
