Vinod,
I am also learning Samba and setting up a simple PDC.
So far, I have the smb.conf file below. This has been tested against a
Windows XP SP2 PC, and I have tried Samba 3.0 and 3.2.
I suggest you DON'T have a 'valid users ..' or 'invalid users ..' line -
just give EVERYONE access until you have the system working, at least.
The following are working -
PC can join the domain
Domain user can logon to the PC
A profile is created for the PC user where specified (you might need to
create the folder and set permissions)
The H: drive is mapped in the PC session
The following doesn't work -
can do almost nothing with usrmgr.exe
can do almost nothing with srvmgr.exe
cannot install a print driver on the server in the Windows XP PC session
('Unable to install .... drivers. Access denied')
smb.conf:
