[Samba] Getting Samba up and Running

[Robert Skujnieks]

Hello all,   I am having problems getting my Samba Server to work as a PDC, version 2.2.3 and I am not sure why I can not get any NT Workstations to Join the domain at all. It says that a primary domain controller can not be found for this domain, does not matter what name of the domain I have in there, or what Name Server I change the name of the Samba server to. Also I have another issue that when I am working with the system,  I have a standard config file, and still I can not get onto it al all. Can someone please tell me where I am going wrong, and do not say, I am using NT4 !   Thanks   Please find below my smb.conf file.   [global] security = user status = yes workgroup = SARAHGROUP (*) wins server =  (*) This needs to be set to the Wins server address encrypt passwords = yes domain logons =yes logon script = scripts\%U.bat domain admin group = @adm guest account = no share modes=no os level=65 [homes] guest ok = no read only = no create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 oplocks = false locking = no [netlogon] path = /usr/local/samba/netlogon writeable = no guest ok = no     What else am I missing ?? I have read the documentation on the Samba web site, and I think I have done everything else correct. Help anyone !   Robert S
