Before I start beating my head against the wall, is there a howto someplace for joining a Samba4 member or BDC to a samba3 domain? Am I going about this all wrong? I most likely will update the PDC to samba 4 next summer due to the amount of automation we have to modify that leverages OpenLDAP. The LDAP server that comes with Samba4 seems kinda limited by comparison. In the meantime, cannot seem to get Samba4 to join the NT4 domain. The wiki article on this subject is empty, currently. Can someone point me in the right direction?

If you see "NT_STATUS_NO_LOGON_SERVERS", then the answer is probably the fact that you are using 4.3.x. Since moving to that version, then 4.4 of Samba, the members will no longer serve shares or respond to testjoin queries or anything else that requires communication with the controller. If you can find a 4.1 or 4.2 that installs in your OS, you may be able to get it to work. Beyond that, I don't have any suggestions because I'm still searching for solutions myself. I'm fairly certain that NT4 bug fixes are not high priority now that AD functionality is the primary focus. Good luck. Dale
