You have specified that your want Samba to be a domain member. This means that you mus have a Windows NT4 type domain controller already. In this case Samba is not correctly configured since the domain logons will conflict with the existing domain controller. "security = domain" means the samba should join a domain controlled by another domain controller. If it is your intent that Samba should BE the domain controller then you must specify "security = user" and not "security = domain". I suspect that you want samba to be the PDC. So set "security = domain" and this should work much better. - John T. > > Here is a copy of my SMB.CONF file for your review. > > [global] > workgroup = SMIS > netbios name = Linux_Server > server string = Linux Server %v > > security = DOMAIN > encrypt passwords = yes > browsable = yes > local master = yes > domain master = yes > os level = 99 > preferred master = yes > domain logons = yes > domain admin group = @ntadmins hosts allow = 192.168.1.100/24 127.0.0.1 > socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 > > log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log > max log size = 0 > > printcap = /etc/printcap > load printers = yes > printing = lprng > use client driver = yes > > #========================= Share Definitions ======================== > [printers] > comment = All Printers > path = /var/spool/samba > browsable = yes > public = yes > writable = no > printable = yes > > [public] > comment = A public share for vendor docs, etc. > path = /usr/public > public = yes > create mask = 0755 > force directory mode = 0755 > writable = yes > > [temp] > comment = A place to drop off temporary files > path = /tmp > public = yes > create mask = 0755 > force directory mode = 0755 > writable = yes[global] > workgroup = SMIS > netbios name = Linux_Server > server string = Linux Server %v > > security = DOMAIN > encrypt passwords = yes > browsable = yes > local master = yes > domain master = yes > os level = 99 > preferred master = yes > domain logons = yes > domain admin group = @ntadmins hosts allow = 192.168.1.100/24 127.0.0.1 > socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 > > log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log > max log size = 0 > > printcap = /etc/printcap > load printers = yes > printing = lprng > use client driver = yes > > #========================= Share Definitions ======================== > [printers] > comment = All Printers > path = /var/spool/samba > browsable = yes > public = yes > writable = no > printable = yes > > [public] > comment = A public share for vendor docs, etc. > path = /usr/public > public = yes > create mask = 0755 > force directory mode = 0755 > writable = yes > > [temp] > comment = A place to drop off temporary files > path = /tmp > public = yes > create mask = 0755 > force directory mode = 0755 > writable = yes > > [docs] > comment = Main Document Share for important Corporate Documents > path = /doc > public = yes > create mask = 0755 > force directory mode = 0755 > writable = yes > > [home] > comment = Home directory for %U > path = /home/%U > browsable = yes > public = no > hide dot files = yes > writeable = yes > create mask = 0755 > directory mask = 0755 > username = %U > > [docs] > comment = Main Document Share for important Corporate Documents > path = /doc > public = yes > create mask = 0755 > force directory mode = 0755 > writable = yes > > [home] > comment = Home directory for %U > path = /home/%U > browsable = yes > public = no > hide dot files = yes > writeable = yes > create mask = 0755 > directory mask = 0755 > username = %U > > > Now one note I need to add I have tried using , "user, Domain, Share" d > for security settings none work. > I have tried using the command to to add machine to Linux_Server and it > comes up saying already added? > > If someone would kindly help me I would be appreciative. > > Thanks so much for your help here, > ikw38 > > > -- John H Terpstra Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
