Re: [Samba] windows env variable for USERDOMAIN is wrong
You said... Just a guess, but this might have been an issue because I created some users before I made Samba a PDC. (since I think this is why I had the name wrong, it's really my prob :) Yup, I've run into a similar situation. The Samba server was running in workgroup mode (not domain controller) for quite some time before it was converted to a domain controller. After that change, when I'd log in with pre-DC accounts, the userdomain would be the name of the samba server, not the domain. To fix it, I converted the passdb backend from tdbsam to smbpasswd then back again. --Jon Johnson Sutinen Consulting, Inc. www.sutinen.com (360) 270-9317 cell Greg Fischer wrote: I am not logged in locally. I checked for that. I did, however, find a cure... since it's a new install with new user accts, I just deleted the samba account and recreated it. (not the unix acct) smbpasswd -x username smbpasswd -a username The user then had the domain name set correctly for USERDOMAIN. And this didnt affect the XP profile.

Thanks in advance. == Same problem i have. Not sure if its deals with WINS or not. but I get my domain showing up on XP boxes along with a domain named after my server showing up. When logging in both Domain\username and PDC\username work. (sighs) -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
