When u used these FORCE user and group settings, you didn't have to tell it
which user and group to force?

Can you send a copy of your smb.conf file.

The problem I am having is that sometimes a machine that is connected to the
domain will not allow a user to authenticate.. but it allows other users to
authenticate.. Im wondering if this could be related...

Resolved problem:
Had decided to use global force user/force group options for the shares.  
It worked like a charm.  All my shares now had default groups and users.
I did not realize how truly global these settings were.  After a careful
review of the logs,  I noticed that root indeed logged in.  However, the
effective user always morphed into nobody.  At that time, I thought this was
nominal behavior.  NOT!

The global settings for:
FORCE USER = unix user
FORCE GROUP= unix group
Sets the Effective User ID to those forced ID's for EVERYTHING, including
non share oriented communications.
Check your configs and eliminate these GLOBAL settings.  

30 hours!  DOH!

        I have found the same problem no and again especially if you remove
a
        machine and then want to rejoin I'm assuming that you use root to
for the
        account and that is exists in you samba setup.

        I found that when it happens to me that quickest and easiest way to
resolve
        the issue is to rebuild the machine I found the problem with XP and
2003
        don't know what causes the issue and I think lots of people have the
same
        problem as it is not the first time this has come up on the posts. 

        Cheers

        Migrating a working Samba 2.2.8a Domain Controller to 3.0.2a
        Using smbpasswd file
        compiled using gcc 3.2.2

        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        Used working 2.2.8 configuration
        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        #authentication as PDC
                workgroup = XNET
                domain logons = yes
                domain master = yes
                preferred master = yes

                password level = 8
        username level = 8
        smb passwd file = /usr/local/samba/lbin/smbpasswd
        logon script = logon.bat
        encrypt passwords = yes

        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        Added automation scripts 
        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        #user group scripts
                add user script=/usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g machines
-c
        "Machine a
        ccount %u" -s /bin/false -M %u
                delete user script=/usr/sbin/userdel -r %u
                add group script=/usr/sbin/groupadd %g
                delete group script=/usr/sbin/groupdel %g
                add user to group script=/usr/sbin/usermod -G %g %u
                add machine script=/usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false -d
/dev/null %u

        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        Disabled the following items in the Local Security Policy
        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        Domain member: Digitally encrypt or sign secure channel data

        Domain member: Require strong (Windows 2000 or later) session key 

        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        Added the following Registry Hacks
        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters]
        "RequireSignOrSeal"=dword:00000000 If you still have changes, you
may want
        to change the following
        
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters]
        "sealsecurechannel"=dword:00000000
        
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters]
        "signsecurechannel"=dword:00000000 

        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        Deleted existing machine entries in smbpasswd
        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        vi smbpasswd 
        delete machine user line
        restart smb

        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        Added machine entries 
        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        smbpasswd -a -m WORKSTATION_NAME


        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        SYMPTOMS
        
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        --------
        CAN authenticate from domain members added prior to migration
        CAN use shares from 95/XP/Samba using share based authentication
        username/password
        CAN join domain form another Samba3 box

        CANNOT join domain from XP
        XP client reports: Access is denied
        (logged in on XP as Administrator)
        Samba reports (level 10 logging): _samr_open_domain: ACCESS DENIED 
        Both root and nobody appear to authenticate
        Logs indicate insufficient privilege to continue 

        Looks like it might be something on the client?? There are no
warnings or
        errors in any of the XP logs.

        Symptoms are the same from multiple installs of XP to multiple
installs of
        samba

        I have racked my brain for the last week and have even resorted to
reading
        the manual.
        Thank you for any guidance in advance!
