Hi,

- I have the same problem  with Samba PDC (+ LDAP) as Ron Segal has. I am
using WINS because I have 2 subnets. I dont use roaming profiles. The
permission of netlogon directory is 755.
- I also have another problem although I've set the option in global "local
master =  yes", but I often get the message from log.nmbd (every 15 min as
you already know):
-----------snip-------------
 process_local_master_announce: Server WINDOWS-BOX at IP 192.168.0.x is
announcing itself as a local master browser for workgroup MYDOMAIN and we
think we are master. Forcing election.
[xxxxxx] nmbd/nmbd_become_lmb.c:unbecome_local_master_success(149)
 *****
 Samba name server PDC has stopped being a local master browser for
workgroup MYDOMAIN on subnet 192.168.0.xx

What do you think about these 2 problems guys. What do you recommend us to
fix? And how can you explain about them?

Hi, I'm running the latest version of Samba with a tdbsam backend,
configured not to use roaming profiles. Two different XP clients (SP2)
are joined to the domain ok but users can only logon by rebooting before
entering their logon details.  When users logoff and try to logon again
(or logon as a different user on the same machine) they get the standard
message 'windows cannot connect to the domain either because the domain
controller is down or because your computer account was not found.
Please try again later .. ' etc.  Have tried fiddling with registry
entries and permissions but can't get this problem to go away.  Any
ideas on this would be appreciated. Cheers.

Have you checked your netlogon and/or profiles Unix permissions? You generally need to set them very, very loose and let Samba handle the security.
