Hello all, We are configuring a SAMBA server with multipile Windows 2000 computers. We are using Debian Sarge (Testing) and using the SAMBA software (3.0.10) that comes with it. We have populated the smb.conf file with just the following:
============================ netbios name = server-cardiff workgroup = bda-cdf passdb backend = tdbsam os level = 65 preferred master = yes domain master = yes local master = yes security = user domain logons = yes ============================ and then started the server, and the log shows: Mar 16 19:23:44 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: [2005/03/16 19:23:44, 0] nmbd/nmbd_logonnames.c:become_logon_server_success(124) Mar 16 19:23:44 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: become_logon_server_success: Samba is now a logon server for workgroupBDA-CDF on subnet 10.3.1.3 Mar 16 19:23:44 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: [2005/03/16 19:23:44, 0] nmbd/nmbd_logonnames.c:become_logon_server_success(124) Mar 16 19:23:44 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: become_logon_server_success: Samba is now a logon server for workgroupBDA-CDF on subnet 10.3.1.3 Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: [2005/03/16 19:23:48, 0] nmbd/nmbd_become_dmb.c:become_domain_master_stage2(113) Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: ***** Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: Samba server SERVER-CARDIFF is now a domain master browser for workgroup BDA-CDF on subnet 10.3.1.3 Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: Mar 16 19:23:48 server-cardiff nmbd[5586]: ***** Then I do an "smbpasswd -a piersk" and enter the password. All seems OK. Then take one Windows 2000 computer, go to System Properties, then Network Identification, then click on "Properties", select "domain" and type in "bda-cdf" and click on "OK" and after a while, it asks for the username and password, and I enter "piersk" as username, and then the password, and it always return an "Logon filure: unknown username or bad password" even tho "pdbedit -Lv | grep piers" shows an entey. We have been attacking this problem for several hours and we don't know what's wrong - we even tried debug level 3 but it's not showing anything helpful - does anyone have an idea where we are going wrong? Thanks very much for your help in advance Cheers - Piers -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
