i've got several clients hooked up to a samba-pdc using samba 2.2;
For the life of me i cannot find out why it takes so long a time for the
windows clients to recognize the samba pdc. If i try to log on, it will
say 'no domain controller available'. But the samba server is there up
and running. I've tried using DHCP and pointing the netbios name server
to the samba server (same machine), and enabled/disabled WINS support in
the samba server, still, it takes around 30m or so for the win clients to
see the PDC.
Has anyone any experience in this? It's really frustrating. Sometimes it
takes me an entier morning to resolve this. And then suddenly and
mysteriously domain logons will work.
