Just got bitten in the ass by not been able to join the domain with 2.2.7a

Correct me if I am wrong, Jerry did give me a quick explaination. It
has to do with usernames and what allowable characters in it for security.

Now, I need to fix this, does anybody have a patch/fix or tell me where
to look in the source to try and fix this.
Finally was able to find the freaking message ... but I think that this might be something else ...


Message from Jerry ...

If I understand what you where saying is, this is to do with shell? ... But the query here is not shell based.

I also tested today with the stuff in LDAP already ... and still seemed to running into problems ( kick oneself for not recording all the stuff I tried, which I will try in my LAB again )

I have diff the samba-2.2.6 to samba-2.2.7a source to try and see what has changed, but I was not able to find anything ... ( the reason I used 2.2.6, is because Buchan Milne "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" said that this worked in that version )

Also, I have seen a few days old messages, which also seem to be discussing this problem ... but I was not able to follow that to and good end ...

I really need domain joining, or at least a work around for it ... Please help me!!!

Thanks
Mailed
