Hi All, Has any one got an idea of how to make clients automatically find the BDC when the PDC is stopped. Both PDC and BDC are running by Samba authenticating again a LDAPSAM backend replicated on both the PDC with master LDAP database and BDC with replicated LDAP database. But when I stop PDC the clients are not detecting the BDC broadcast. I can see that the replication is of

...ines. I have a single Linux server running Suse 9.2. I would like for this server to be able to act as the PDC for N domains. I am using ldap as the password/ account back end running on the same box. I'm also running dhcpd and DNS on this box. I followed the Samba-How-To to setup 'MEGANET2' and have several of the windows boxes participating in that domain with what appears to be success (thanks to the writer). I then, based on what I could find doing google searches, created an additional ip address (alias) and an additional smb.conf file specifying to bind to the aliased i...

Hi together, we have a Windows 2003 Active Directory Server, working together with Samba Version 3.0.2a-Debian. It seems everything (Kerberos authentication and so on) works fine. All the authentication is done by the windows 2003 server. My problem is, that I can't connect to a share via a windows xp client, when the share has an option "valid user" which defines a group of the

Hi. I'm having some trouble when trying to join a SAMBA machine, acting as a member server, to a NT-style domain server managed by a SAMBA PDC using an LDAP back-end. Both machines are running samba-3.0.10-1.4E.6 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.1 Update 3 for AMD64. When trying to add the member server to the domain, it fails with an error message. However, if I try to add it again, the
