Dear Friends:

I am trying to join a Suse 9.1 Server running Samba 3.07 to an NT4 Domain. One part I am confused about is the command "net rpc join -U" ... is the username to be used with this command the name of an administrator on the NT4 PDC? Does that administrator need to be an user on the Samba Server and a member of the "root" group?

I successfully join using the DomainAdmin%Password combo from the NT4 domain, but with subsequent commands such as "net rpc trustdom list" it fails when I enter the password for the DomainAdmin. What password should I be using?

Also the "wbinfo" commands appear to work but I don't understand the "wbinfo --set-auth-user" for the same reasons as stated above. Is the user a NT4 DomainAdmin or is it 'root' on the linux box?

My smb.conf follows.  Thank you for your kind help.
