I am testing w/ a PC loaded w/ Centos 5 and Samba (whatever version it

I have not had any luck with connecting WinXP clients to it (or
anything for that matter)
I think my problems stem from not joining the domain correctly.
What is the proper method for Win XP or WIn 2K . When I get a chance
I am gonna connect a PC to my test network.
To join a domain, you would need (at least for NT)
Name of Domain
Admin account
Password for admin account
A unique Network Name for the PC.
And you typically (at least thru XP) right click on the Computer Icon,
> Properties > Network and Join the domain or change machine name to
get on.
What do you do for Limux / Samba ???
You need,
root account, ???
root password ??? Uniique machine name ??? Do you try to join domain
is same manner or is there a config file you got to edit ???
Any help or advice is welcome.
Hiya,
You need this document:
http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/unixclients.html#wdcsdm
There's also additional info in the samba docs at samba.org.
Particularly useful are Samba 3 by example and the Samba 3 Howto.
Cheers,
jools
