Hi there, just recently joined this list as I seem to be having a little trouble that I am hoping someone can help with.
I recently installed a RHEL5.5 server and updated samba to samba3-3.4.11-42.el5.x86_64.rpm. I had never set up samba to authenticate with ADS so I read a little bit and dove right in. The server now works fine, so when I browse to \\machinename<file:///\\machinename> no login box pops up, and I see the shares, and every user in the domain can write to them. So far so good. I then try to replicate this on another server and then the problems started. Here is the procedure I followed: I copied smb.conf, krb5.conf over to the new server from the working copy. Edited nsswitch.conf to add winbind to the end of passwd, group and shadow. I then ran "kinit admin". This worked. I than ran kdestroy to destroy the token. [root@rhel5u5live ~]# net ads join -U ictadmin Enter ictadmin's password: Using short domain name -- XXX Joined 'RHEL5U5LIVE' to realm 'xxx.com' [root@rhel5u5live ~]# net ads testjoin Join is OK [root@rhel5u5live ~]# wbinfo -u | grep brian.om XXX/brian.omahony So it seems to be able to look up users etc on the Domain controller. How ever when I browse to \\machinename<file:///\\machinename> a login box pops up. I *know* I must have forgotten something, but cant figure out what. Could someone please help?
