In my case, I've attempted to set up a Redhat linux 9.0 box as a primary domain controller. I have a windows xp machine (professional) and am attempting to connect to the pdc. However, I continually receive a network path not found error. When I look within the log.smbd file, I see a number of Denied connection from (client ip address) messages. Here are some things to note:
1. There IS another domain controller on the network, however, it is not a SAMBA pdc. I've seen instructions that say there should not be another pdc on the network, but I'm assuming that means a samba pdc. I don't know if that makes a difference. 2. I tried adding machine accounts both manually and through the "add user script" directive in smb.conf. None worked 3. I've seen instructions regarding changing local security policies. Specifically, I've read messages regarding "Locate the entry "Domain member: ...". Furthermore, I've read that sometimes you don't need to follow those commands and simply need to add a registry patch. In my case, I was not able to find the entry "Domain member" and simply added the WinXP_SignOrSeal registry patch. That may or may not cause a problem. However, I didn't know what to do considering the entry I was supposed to find was not listed. Any help that someone could give me regarding this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Note that I'm attaching my smb.conf file. Armando Colpa
