My original post didn't seem to work properly - so I am trying again ... I am having problems getting security=domain to work properly with Samba 3.0.11 (this seems to be the recommended configuration for the application which I use - ClearCase)
We are running on a Solaris 10 server. We created a machine account for the server and then ran the command to join the domain : net rpc join -S domain_controller -U user%pass Joined domain BP1. The fact that we got the "joined domain" message looked encouraging. I thought that this would update /usr/local/samba/private/secrets.tdb - but the timestamp of this file didn't change. Is this normal ? Maybe it is because we can now access the samba share from a client PC. However - it takes too long (around 15 seconds). Occasionally it fails altogether. If we set "password server" to "*" rather than hard coding a domain controller then it fails every time with access denied errors. If we switch to security=server it works OK.
