samba - Nov 2024 - Accessing Samba domain member shares from trusted domain

Hello all

We have two AD domains; A for production, and B for development

I am told B trusts A, but not the other way around (one-way trust)

Within domain B exists a Linux Samba file server (domain member of domain B)
which I am trying to access from domain A with my domain A account, but it is
not working (prompts for creds)

Does the Linux Samba file server need access to the domain A DC (and KDC)?  I
somehow thought the trust would work it all out in the background for me



Thanks,

Robert Vaughan
