Thanks Jerry. I thought the same too. I don't get a connection refused, it times out. Perhaps something on the LAN. It's a new AD setup running on HP blades for 1000+ users. I'll need to check with the MS admins.

Thanks for your help. Greatly appreciated !
Keep well.

Kind regards

David Wilson

Ah excellent ! Thanks for your help Jerry. I came right.

My only problem is that when a client connects to my
Samba, Samba first attempts to connect to the AD DC on port 445
to authenticate the user - this times out after some seconds and
then successfully goes through on port 139. Must be something
on the AD DC that is stopping this ? Is there any way I can
try forcing Samba to only use port 139 in thatrequest to the AD DC ?
I've tried 'smb ports = 139' - this of course seems to be only
for the 'server' side of Samba.

If an AD server is rejecting connections on port 445, then
something is wrong with the DC.  Are you sure it's really
an AD DC?  Is this perhaps a mixed mode domain with NT4 BDCs?







cheers, jerry
