Samba

[sijones]

I have set up a Linux box (Corel v1) as a server and the samba server is working fine, but I cann't make nt join the domain it says the domain controller is not accept the connection or the user / password is wrong. Do I have to put the computer names in to the samba config file for the nt boxes to connect? <p>Simon Jones<br><a href=mailto:sijones_uk@yahoo.com>sijones_uk@yahoo.com</a><br><a href=

Try doing it the other way around - make the Samba server join the NT domain. This should work a little better. I suspect what is happening is that the NT box is trying to authenticate itself against the Samba server, and this might not be set up correctly.<br>
<br>
Also, although the plan is for Samba to provide NT style authentication, I'm not sure if it's all the way there, yet. Check your local Samba mirror for details. (Start from, I think, <A HREF="

It sounds like NT is being Egotistical again and doesn't to be authenticated on the unix network.<br>
<br>
I am wondering if you have the NT server set up to be a primary domain controller or just a regular NT server????

There's no NT server, I wanted Samba to do the works, and be the server for the workstations. But I didn't realise that samba couldn't do it all!!!<br>
<br>
All well back to the drawing board. I haven't got the money to buy the server version you see.<br>

Thanks anyway... <p>Simon Jones<br><a href=mailto:sijones_uk@yahoo.com>sijones_uk@yahoo.com</a><br><a href=

Just had a look at the local(ish) Samba mirror and found the following link - <A HREF="

<br>
Details the current state of the &quot;NTness&quot; of Samba. It looks like it will currently do some - maybe all - of what you require. Could be worth a look.
