I found the solution: I tried the srvmgr tool from microsoft to get connected to my samba 3 domain (from an XP client). And this tool told me the same "There is no PDC found for your domain. You may go on but but your rights may be Restricted." As I logged on I saw that both my PDC and BDC where BDCs. I stopped my BDC. Logged on to my PDC and remembering that I had also smbd4wins running on the same machine I restarted smbd4wins and then samba and everithing worked fine. I could join the vista client to the domain on the fly. -----Urspr?ngliche Nachricht----- Von: Daniel M?ller [mailto:mueller@tropenklinik.de] Gesendet: Montag, 18.

Now I have a vista ultimate pc which I cannot join to the domain. The error message when I try to join to the domain is: The Domain is unavailable or the connection could not be established. What I've done so far: Run secpol.msc --> Local Plicies-->Security Options -->Lan Manager authentication level-->changed it to: LM and NTLM- use NTLMV2 session security if negotiated. Had someone did the trick?? Greetings Daniel M?ller Tropenklinik Paul-Lechler-Krankenhaus mueller@tropenklinik.de
Hi Daniel, is solved this issue with the parameter: client ntlmv2 use = yes in smb.conf. But my Linux Server is an ADS member (security=ads). I dont know exactly if this is required so that the parameter above will work. http://www.arktur.de/FAQ/28_120_de.html?highlight=lsa Gr??e, Andy Daniel M?ller schrieb:> I found the solution: > > > I tried the srvmgr tool from microsoft to get connected to my samba 3 > domain (from an XP client). > And this tool told me the same "There is no PDC found for your domain. > You may go on but but your rights may be > Restricted."

Environment: Sun Solaris 5.10 Samba 3.0.28 (latest SUN supported version) We are currently running Totalnet Advanced Server TAS (for cifs services) but plan to replace this with SAMBA. Has anyone see this problem? I am opening a ticket with SUN also. from the UNIX command line cd /export/userdir/project dir/sub dir /file-excel.xls ( yes, there are spaces in the directory names and a trailing space " ".)>From a PC client, XP sp2TAS mapping: \userdir\project dir\sub dir\file-excel.xls [ note that the PC does not show the trailing space but allows access to the directory ] SAMBA mapping: \userdir\project dir\2D8YHS~L\file-excel.xls [ note that the PC shows a garbled directory name but allows access to the directory below] At some point we may go to open source to get the latest version, but, management wants to stay on SUN supported versions if possible.
