[Samba] Cached credentials issues and domain and server name being interchanged
Hello all, I am having some difficulties after migrating the PDC from one server to another cached credentials no longer work. Users used to be able to take their laptops home and then logon using their cached domain credentials. Now when this is attempted now they get the error that the GAUACA domain is not available. All of the group policy settings are set to allow cached logons and this used to work with the exact same machines with the exact same GP settings. Also the domain name and the servers netbios names are becoming confused. We use RDP fairly extensively and to use RDP you have to be added to the machine as a remote user. When I add the staff member to the machine they show up as GAUACA\[username] and then after the first time they logon to that machine their name changes to ARDVARC\[username]. GAUACA is the domain name and ARDVARC is the netbios name of the server. All works correctly on site users can login to the domain from any machine that has been joined and works as expected except for cached credentials. See smb.conf below [global] smb passwd file = /etc/samba/passdb.tdb enable privileges = yes logon drive = H: domain master = yes encrypt passwords = true logon home = \\%L\%U netbios name = ARDVARC server string = Gaudior's PDC logon script = logon.bat local master = yes workgroup = GAUACA logon path = \\%L\%U\profile os level = 99 security = user add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false \-d /dev/null %u preferred master = yes domain logons = yes hide files = /desktop.ini/$RECYCLE.BIN/profile/profile.V2/profile.old/profile.V2.old/ guest account = nobody map to guest = bad user wins support = yes [staff] comment = staff share drive path = /home/staff/share read only = no [student] comment = student share by level path = /home/student/share read only = no [netlogon] comment = Net Logon Service path = /home/netlogon read only = yes write list = root public = yes guest ok = yes browsable = no [homes] comment = Home valid users = %S read only = no browsable = no -- Mathew E.
