[Samba] Error: Rejecting auth request from client MAILBKP1 machine account MAILBKP1$
I have a Samba 3.3.2 member server, named mailbkp1, which I joined to a Samba 3.3.2 domain controller. At joining time, I got two errors on the domain controller, which I report here: [2009/03/31 14:08:47, 0] rpc_server/srv_netlog_nt.c:_netr_ServerAuthenticate2(546) _netr_ServerAuthenticate2: netlogon_creds_server_check failed. Rejecting auth request from client MAILBKP1 machine account MAILBKP1$ After joining, users can logon properly, and everything seems to work, but every time the member server gets a new connection, and contacts the DC to authenticate the user, I get that error again. I have searched through the bug tracking system, and found that older versions of Samba showed this behaviour, but I supposed that this was corrected on later versions. I have also tried joining a 3.3.2 Samba server to a NT4 PDC, and while the Samba member server works properly, I get similar messages (the machine failed to authenticate itself) in the Event Viewer of the NT4 PDC. Is there an open bug abut this? I have found none.
