Hello Folks, I I'm in an urgent need to set up my Samba server to act as domain logon server for NT workstation and it'd be grateful if anyone could offer advise on how to do it. I'm currently running SambaV1.9.18p8 on a Solaris 2.6 box. I've set up domain logon for all Windows 98 clients and everything works fine. However, we've just installed a few PCs with Windows NT. My

Dear all, I have a problem synchronizing my Windows98 network password (i.e. samba password) with my Unix NIS+ password. The Unix station is running Solaris 2.6.

Hi Folks, I downloaded Samba2.0alpha8 from Samba site. Compiled it and installed it on the Solaris 2.6 unix box. I set up domain logon for both Windows 98 clients and WinNT. There is no problem logging on from Windows98 and the shares are all working alright. Then, I followed Samba NTDOM FAQ and add the NT workstation name into /etc/passwd and smbpasswd (using smbpasswd -a -m
