similar to: Joining an AD domain without password

I have a win2k domain ... 2 of the client machines are Red Hat (7.3 and 8.0). I set everything up to use the DC to authenticate ID/PW. Everything worked perfectly until a week or so ago ... Samba would automatically create a home folder and the whole nine yards. Now I can see the shares on the Samba machines, but I can't access them ... just prompts for the ID/PW over and over. I can mount

Hi, I'm trying to get Samba on a Linux box to work. Authentication via user level worked fine, but what I really want is it to take user authentication from a win2k box, which is our "primary local server". The win2k box is not a pdc, (the real pdc is 2000km away, close to the polar circle), but according to the docs it doesn't have to be. So in smb.conf I put: security =

I've got several dozen Windows XP Pro computers in a Samba/Windows Domain. The problem is that with them being in the domain, automatic updates does not work on these computers. I think its because the people log into the computers with the default windows domain restrictions (you know, can't install anything, can't adjust the time on the clock, can't update drivers, etc).

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Just a heads up, There is a bug in 3.0.1 that will cause Win2k (no SP and possibly up to SP2, but apparently not SP3/4) to fail to join a Samba domain. The problem was a bug in the lanman session key generation. The proposed patch that should correct it can be found at http://samba.org/samba/ftp/patches/jerry/post-3.0.1/lm_key.patch (might

Hi, I had success to join a samba domain with a win2K Station a few days ago. But today when a try to log with an another account, my station win2K say me she can't contact my PDC. I does not know what occurred since the last time. I disjoin my domain and after i has try to join again but with no success.

dear all, i will outline the problem im having before posting my smb.conf, just in case someone knows what to trouble-check. i have a samba PDC set-up, no firewalls, the windows machine WILL mount the shares fine, but it wont join the domain. I mean that I have entered the machine name as a trust account into both passwd and smbpasswd, and when I join the domain in win2k, it actually asks me

Good Afternoon All: Here is the setup: A RedHat 7.2 Samba 2.2.7 Server upgraded to Fedora Core 1 Samba 3.0.6-2.FC1. The server is acting as the PDC. No Windows servers are providing authentication. Windows 2000 clients. testparm -v | grep "unix charset" results in UTF-8. locale charmap results in ISO-8859-1. using smbpasswd. Before upgrading the server, I was able to authenticate

I'm running 3.0alpha (both current CVS pull and alpha20 from dist) and trying to have my samba server join our already in place Win2K ADS domain. I am able to 'kinit user@DOMAIN' and auth successfully, but upon attempting 'net ads join', I get the following: # net ads join -Uadministrator administrator password: [2002/10/31 05:11:19, 1] libsmb/clikrb5.c:krb5_mk_req2(63)

Hello I have a question related to Samba + Win2k Workstations. I have replaced a Win2k server by Samba (2.2.4). Everything was fine: the users could login and access shares, but they could not connect to printers shared on another Win2k workstations and even could not change their wallpapers. Since I needed to do that work fast, the solution I could find to this situation was to give to all

Hi, I am trying to set up a SAMBA-PDC for our school's network and find a strange Problem with two Win2k workstations. When I try to join the SAMBA domain I receive an error which says the user account - I am using root - is unknown. I call this "strange" because other Win2k machines on the very same subnet work correctly - and what is even stranger: I can manually access all

I upgraded my Samba alpha 21 to alpha 22 and the clients stoped accessing the shares. As I have experienced this before, I started the debugging process, until I reached the part of joining the win2k Domain. Thats where things crash with the following message: [2003/03/18 11:13:59, 1] libsmb/clikrb5.c:krb5_mk_req2(256) krb5_cc_get_principal failed (No credentials cache found) [2003/03/18

Samba 3.0.21b with LDAP backend The transfer to the Sanba hosted domain appears to work, ie success message, but I can't log on to a domain account from that workstation, complains about missing machine account or incorrect password. Only NT4 workstations seem to be a problem, Win2k and XP are Ok. NT4 is maximally patched, updated and etc - no registry hacks however. I checked the LDAP

Dear all, I downloaded samba3.0-alpha21 and followed each step in "ADS-HOWTO.txt". But mapping a network directory from a Windows client failed (step 4: Test your server setup). (Succeeded in other steps.... Including step 5) Only local users in the samba server can access the share folder. (Please refer to the smb.conf listed below...) And "#kadmin -p administrator" fails

Hi, Having managed to get far enough with the config to get a win2k box to connect to a Samba v3.0 share where the Samba machine's backend is based in LDAP, I cannot now add this win2k machine to the domain. Can anyone give me an example of how to set up an account within the LDAP server that has sufficient rights to allow the machine to join my Samba domain? Regards, Graham --

I've followed the steps in the 2.2 PDC howto (I think). When I try and join the domain from a Win2k box I get an error message saying that I'm trying to use a machine account and I should use a global or local user account. When the Win2k box asks for a name and password that can join the domain I give "root" and root's samba password. I had previously added root to
