Hello Everybody,
   I've almost solved my problem.
   First of all my LDAP tree is:
   dc=domain
      ou = Computers
      ou = Users
      ou = Groups

   In my /etc/ldap.conf i've this:
   nss_base_passwd         ou=Users?one
   nss_base_shadow         ou=Users?one
   nss_base_group          ou=Groups?one
   nss_base_hosts          ou=Computers?one


When i do a "getent passwd" i get only the itens under "ou=Users" and my /etc/passwd (i believe the machines account should appear too).
   And my  "net rpc join -U root -w DOMAIN" i get:
   Create of workstation account failed
   Unable to join domain INTRA.
   (but when i look in ldap a machine acount was created)
I tried to move the machine account tho the "ou=Users" (so my "getent passwd" also shows the machine account), and when i did "net rpc join -U root -w DOMAIN" i got:
   "Joined domain DOMAIN"

   What an awful thing!!!

* So if i put both computers and users inside "ou=Users" it will be ok, but........ my LDAP tree would be a mess!!!

   Can someone helps me??? PLEASE!! :D

Thanks
Marcelo

Helo,
I've used the idealx tutorial (http://samba.idealx.org/smbldap-howto.en.html), almost everything is fine, i can access the home directories and view shares, but when i try to join the domain i get the error:
"while attempting to join the domain DOMAIN the user could not be found"
When i look in ldap the machine acount was created and in /var/log/samba there is no error log (it creates e logfile for the machine, but it is kept empty).
  Can someone help us??

Thanks.

Hii

I have followed the Samba 3 by Example Chapter 2 small office network to the letter. I can connect to server shares using the root user and pw but when I try to join the domain I still get the message " while attempting to join the domain xxxx the user could not be found"

Thanks for any help you may be able to give

Mike
