Please bear with me as this is my first time actually using a mailing list.
I've set up a CentOS 6.4 machine as a samba4 Primary Domain Controller, and successfully joined a windows 8 client machine to the domain. My question is as follows: when I add the computer "BED-DESK-01" to the domain "MYDOMAIN.LOCAL" shouldn't an A record be created for "BED-DESK-01.MYDOMAIN.LOCAL" so that while logged into SERVER.MYDOMAIN.LOCAL I can "ping bed-desk-01.mtolympus.local" etc? This seems to be the only part of AD that is not functioning for me at this point. I have also noticed some strange behavior when I browse to \\MYDOMAIN.LOCAL\ on the client and try to access a share called "profiles" that I created in /usr/local/samba/etc/smb.conf I get the error: "Element not found.", contrariwise, if I type in \\SERVER.MYDOMAIN.LOCAL or \\10.0.0.1\ and click on profiles I can get into the share, browse, and create/modify files just fine? Further when opening network neighborhood, \\MYDOMAIN.LOCAL is not what is loaded by default. I am hoping that this is all indicative of one or two administration mistakes that I can fix with some assistance. Thank you so very much for your assistance, --GM. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
