I have been trying off and on for some time now to get an interdomain trust relationship going between two samba pdc machines (DomainA=trusted & DomainB=trusting). Both pdc's are running on Solaris boxes and NIS is involved (I doubt there is a NIS complication just because I can use accounts on DomainA on DomainB's samba, as long as I add them using smbpasswd manually).
The situation is this. DomainA hosts most user accounts for my two networks. Therefore DomainA should be trusted and DomainB should be trusting. The documentation is confusing and does not describe this exact scenario (talks about samba with microsoft pdc's). I have tried every combination I can think of, but things still aren't working as they should. I have added an account for DomainB on DomainA. I then type "smbpasswd -a -i DomainB", still working on DomainA. This seems to go through okay. However, when I type "net rpc trustdom list" on DomainA, I get the following: Trusted domains list: none Trusting domains list: Unable to find a suitable server domain controller is not responding DomainB I expect what I see for trusted, but for trusting, should I really be seeing those errors? What do they mean? Is the fact that DomainB is listed mean that it worked and I should ignore the errors? I guess I'll stop here and make sure there is not a problem with this step before I post further information about this process.
