Subject: [Samba] Problem authenticating against a W2K server


 Hi there.
 
 I'm having a problem letting a Samba server (MYSAMBA) authenticate users
 (using security = domain and a password server = MYPDC) against a
 Windows 2000 PDC (MYPDC).  The Windows 2000 machine seems (I'm not 100%
snip

Add the machine to the domain on the Win2k PDC using AD.

Then smbpasswd -j DOMAINNAME -r PDCIP -U Administrator%password

Then wbinfo -A Administrator%password

Then it should work fine.

I'm kinda getting tired of this, can't we redo the docs for Winbind LOL

I agree.  I had already stumbled upon this -A switch to wbinfo and then
read the winbindd man file and it states: winbindd is a daemon that
provides a service for the Name Service Switch capability that is present
in most modern C libraries.  This sounded to far from what I was trying
to do. :-)

I'll try setting up the winbindd and using wbinfo -A.  Thanks for the help!


Best regards,

Ingimar
