First I apologize if I am not posting this to the correct list, but it seems rather specific and I haven't had any success posting it to the regular samba list (but then I might just be impatient).
I am running Samba as of CVS yesterday evening, Redhat 7.2, winbindd is configured to use a domain user instead of anonymous connections, and the PDC is NT4. I've been trying to get winbind running for quite some time now, many days to be exact, without success - and the problem I have right now is this - winbindd tells me --------- could not fetch trust account password for domain MYDOMAIN Plain-text authentiation for user testuser1 returned NT_STATUS_CANT_ACCESS_DOMAIN_INFO --------- (more detailed logs are at the end of this message) when I run "wbinfo -a testuser1%testuser1" (adding the domain doesn't change anything apparently). I am also not sure if the pam configuration in /etc/pam.d/samba could be defect but I think it's irrelevant for my tests since wbinfo talks directly to winbindd or am I totally wrong? I already started looking at the source (secrets.c, winbindd_pam.c) but I'm just in the beginning of my journey of transforming my medium windows C skills to linux. Under what circumstances does Samba report the above errors? Is my file secrets.tdb possibly broken? "wbinfo -t" returns "checking the trust secret via RPC calls succeeded", and "wbinfo -u" lists all user accounts, even "getent passwd" works great - so I would think that my secrets.tdb is ok. I even tried to add some more debugging info to track down for myself where the problem in "secrets.c" exactly occurrs - but even though I update all .so files in the pam relevant directories and rebooted the linux box the additional (and changed) lines are not effective - rather confusing. The ultimate goal is to use this samba installation as a member server without having to maintain NT user accounts on the samba box. Again, I hope not to disturb anybody sending to the technical list and also hope that someone can just give me a *little* hint so I can get this thing going. Thanks so much, Ingmar. --------- detailed logs: In detail, wbinfo says: ------------------------ plaintext password authentication failed error code was NT_STATUS_CANT_ACCESS_DOMAIN_INFO (0xc00000da) Could not authenticate user testuser1%testuser1 with plaintext password challenge/response password authentication failed error code was NT_STATUS_CANT_ACCESS_DOMAIN_INFO (0xc00000da) Could not authenticate user testuser1%testuser1 with challenge/response winbindd says: ------------------------ [..] pam auth: testuser1 winbindd_pam_auth: could not fetch trust account password for domain MYDOMAIN Plain-text authentiation for user testuser1 returned NT_STATUS_CANT_ACCESS_DOMAIN_INFO [..] request misc info [..] request domain name [..] pam auth crap domain: MYDOMAIN user: testuser1 winbindd_pam_auth: could not fetch trust account password for domain MYDOMAIN NTLM CRAP authentiation for user [MYDOMAIN]\[testuser1\ returned NT_STATUS_CANT_ACCESS_DOMAIN_INFO
