I found the problem! It turned out to be an ldap problem after all. I had added the machine account to ou=Computers as detailed in most of the Samba/LDAP documentation. However, Samba was looking for the machine account in ou=People. So I made the necessary change to smbldap_conf.pm, and I was able to join the domain. There is probably a way to make ou=Computers work, but I haven't a clue how. --Dan -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
