| I've created DNS SRV entry
| _ldap._tcp.pdc._msdcs.domainame.com as described
| in Samba-HOWTO but this is what happends:
|
| 1.  XP client sends DNS query for entry
| _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.domainame.com and
| not for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.domainame.com (note the
| difference .dc instead of .pdc) and fails because of
| missing DNS entry
|
| 2.  I added SRV entry for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.domainame.com,
| now XP finds the Samba domain controller but tries to
| contact LDAP server on it using UDP protocol and fails again.
|
| Obviously, XP expects domain controller name returned by SRV
| .dc entry to belong to AD Domain controller and not NT4 style
| one and it never even tries to query for .pdc record.
|
| Did anybody get this to work?

Is this actually in our docs ?  If so, we need to fix that.
I'm pretty sure that won't work.

I think he's probably seeing this: http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/NetworkBrowsing.html#adsdnstech

regarding how to support AD in a BIND environment, connecting the dots (and adding a couple) to think that Samba requires those entries.
