I have setup my Linux server as a Primary Domain Controller using Samba

access a file resource on one of the Windows 2003 file servers, the
authentication fails with System Error 1789.

        With "they" you mean "all computers"? Or some particular version?
AFAICT, Win95 does not have crypto passwords, which means that it is not
going to work properly.

Windows users computers (all versions 98, 2000, XP Pro) can access all shared resources on the Linux server. However, if one of these Windows user computers attempts to share a resource on the Windows 2003 File Server (which did successfully join the domain), then error 1789 is returned. Encryption is turned on and the passwords are stored on smbpasswd.

The Windows 2003 file
server did successfully join my domain.    I am not running Winbindd
primarily because it was not part of the Samba packaging provided by
Suse.   Is it necessary to run Winbindd in order to have the Windows
2003 servers validate?

        Looks like more a permission problem than a 2003 validation
problem. The idea behind winbindd is share the user list between
servers and, from your description, does not sounds like you need it,
althoght there is not enough information to be sure. :-)

        Did you map users? Which version of Samba are you running? In
which MS Windows versions the problem occurs?


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

        Hope it helps, kind regards.


We added the users as regular users on the Linux computer and to the smbpasswd file. Except for Administrator which I did map to root, the user name on the Windows end user computer is the same as the user name on the Linux Samba Primary Domain Controller. We are using Samba version 3.0. The latest available from Suse. If I make the Windows 2003 computer a member of a workgroup and add the users directly to the Windows 2003 computer, then the users can access resources on the Windows 2003 file server. The error (1789) indicates that the Windows 2003 Server cannot verify the user name and password against the primary domain controller; i.e., the Linux box. As part of one of my Google searches, some news group responder indicated that Windbind was necessary to make this work.
