Workaround: put guid names in /etc/hosts if you experience this bug.

I don't believe it. That has fixed it.

No more WERR_BADFILE errors in /usr/local/samba/var/log.samba

Domain Computers that were not in DC2 now are.

Many thanks Giedrius <[email protected]>

Replication now works.


Aaahhh, interesting. I will eat my hat if this fixes it.

It's a bit chewy, but well worth it. :) That's my lunch sorted, and my Windows 
Serverless network.

Amazing... and so typical of Linux. The solution is there, you just need 
someone to point it out.

Thanks to everyone.


PS: ok, so who is going to add it to the official Samba wiki page now?
We really don't want that in the wiki, because you should not be putting
fixed things in /etc/hosts, we have to fix it another way.  What we do
want is to know:

  - is this still an issue in GIT master?
  - can we detect the difference between this error and a real
non-existent name by looking at return codes (we had a similar issue on
FreeBSD, and caught it this way).  I'm hoping we might just be missing
that fix, or there was a regression in that.
Well being myself the one who found that cheezy solution, I can point out that yes that's the version form git master.

It only happens when you replicate, when you join either a w2k8 Server to the domain and do dcpromo on on it.

We have (multiple) alternative DNS resolvers internally, and we do use
them.  We try to use nss when we can, but fall back for the cases that
don't work.  If we can't rely on the error code, we may have to use a
pre-check of the name instead.

Any assistance tracking this down most valued, as it seems to be biting
folks.
I changed resolv.conf on DCA to ip.to.dc.b and no joy then I changed resolv.conf o DC2 to ip.of.dc.1 and nothing worked.

cheers

Thanks,
