Hi I have installed a smba pdc with openLDAP. With windows clients i can use it without problems (join the domain, login with users ....). But i can't join the domain with my ubuntu client 10.04. I have try this to join: sudo net join -W firma1 -U administrator but i get the following error: cannot join as standalone machine. smb.conf: [global] # Domain name .. workgroup = firma1 # Server name - as seen by Windows PCs .. netbios name = ldap # Be a PDC .. domain logons = Yes domain master = Yes # Be a WINS server .. wins support = true security = domain obey pam restrictions = Yes dns proxy = No os level = 35 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 syslog = 0 panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d pam password change = Yes # Allows users on WinXP PCs to change their password when they press Ctrl-Alt-Del unix password sync = no ldap passwd sync = yes # Printing from PCs will go via CUPS .. load printers = yes printing = cups printcap name = cups # Use LDAP for Samba user accounts and groups .. passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://localhost # This must match init.ldif .. ldap suffix = dc=firma1,dc=de # The password for cn=admin MUST be stored in /etc/samba/secrets.tdb # This is done by running 'sudo smbpasswd -w'. ldap admin dn = cn=admin,dc=firma1,dc=de # 4 OUs that Samba uses when creating user accounts, computer accounts, etc. # (Because we are using smbldap-tools, call them 'Users', 'Computers', etc.) ldap machine suffix = ou=Computers ldap user suffix = ou=Users ldap group suffix = ou=Groups ldap idmap suffix = ou=Idmap # Samba and LDAP server are on the same server in this firma1. ldap ssl = no # Scripts for Samba to use if it creates users, groups, etc. add user script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -m '%u' delete user script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-userdel %u add group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupadd -p '%g' delete group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupdel '%g' add user to group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupmod -m '%u' '%g' delete user from group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupmod -x '%u' '%g' set primary group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-usermod -g '%g' '%u' # Script that Samba users when a PC joins the domain .. # (when changing 'Computer Properties' on the PC) add machine script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w '%u' # Values used when a new user is created .. # (Note: '%L' does not work properly with smbldap-tools 0.9.4-1) logon drive = logon home = logon path = logon script = # This is required for Windows XP client .. server signing = auto server schannel = Auto [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = No browseable = No [netlogon] comment = Network Logon Service path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon admin users = root guest ok = Yes browseable = No [Profiles] comment = Roaming Profile Share path = /var/lib/samba/profiles read only = No profile acls = Yes browsable = No -- View this message in context: http://samba.2283325.n4.nabble.com/Joining-ubuntu-client-to-samba-domain-tp3005055p3005055.html Sent from the Samba - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
