Samba version 3.0.9 on Red Hat 9.0 workstations: NT 4.0 SP6 When I took over this project, there were two domains connected by a VPN. For reasons that I'm unable to understand, some new users wound up with the intended domain of SATA and some wound up in SATB (even though they joined the SATA domain.

I'm running the samba-client-3.0.20-0.1 SUSE RPM. I was using the version that came with 9.3 but upgraded to see if this specific problem would go away.

Specifically, I can login with local account, join workstation to the domain, browse

Hello Lads, Problem could be smbldap-tools, im using 0.97. I have manually set the sid on the bdc which seems to work. I am confused because I thought net rpc getsid stored the sid from the pdc on the bdc in secrets. I wasn't aware that net getlocalsid should return identical results on both pdc & bdc. Please explain this - why isnt the BDC obtaining the sid automatic as it should

I've set up NT domains from scratch and things work. However, in this case I vampired the old settings over to my new Samba PDC from a W2K server which I then removed from the network. Everything almost works, except ... The main thing is that I can't seem to change the domain passwords from the XP Pro workstations. Normally you do Ctrl-Alt-Del and select change password, then fill
