I am having difficulty joining my new samba server to my domain. I am replacing an old member server. I am using the same config file with a new netbios name I try 'net rpc join -S my-pdc -W my-domain -U root' and get the following utils/net_rpc_join.c:net_rpc_join_newstyle(304) error setting trust account password: NT code 0x1c010002 Unable to join domain my-domain. I can dynamically join windows machines to my domain. The net join creates a partial machine account in my LDAP server. The samba deamons are off Apart from installing the RPMs and updating smb.conf is there anything else I need to do before I run net join? NB I have also had the same results downloading Samba 3.0.28 running the rpm creation script and installing the RPM Although I can find references to this problem on the Internet I have not found a cause yet! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Blue Chip Technology Limited.

did you delete and recreate the machine account so the new server can use it for when it joins?
