Hi All,
Just joined this list so excuse me if this has been addressed
recently. I have a samba server acting as a pdc for my domain and
all the workstations except on log on fine and work like good little
windows boxes should. I just built a new machine and joined it to
the domain and that all went smoothly, a user can log on to the
domain no problem. but after they have logged in and are getting
ready to start, an icon in the tray comes up and says the fileserver
(pdc) is offline even though it isn't. This happens to all users who
loginto the workstation except 'administrator'. I have tried
renaming the workstation, leaving the domain and rejoining, deleteing
the machine account. I am at my wits end. The workstation maintains
connectivity to the internet with no problem, so I assume the
networking is all good, but I have no idea where to go from here.
Thanks,
Sean
BTW this is a debian 3.1 machine and samba is Version 3.0.14a-Debian.
The windows machine is XP SP2
I Have found the source of my pain: An entry in the windows registry on
the box solved my problem:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System]
"CompatibleRUPSecurity"=dword:00000001
I had to add the folder and the dword. Just an FYI.
