You can rename a Linux domain member as follows: First, remove it from the domain
#net ads leave -U [EMAIL PROTECTED] Next, change the netbios name value in the /etc/samba/smb.conf file, e.g. netbios name = <NEW NAME> Restart the samba and winbind daemons # /etc/init.d/smb restart && /etc/init.d/winbind restart Finally, you rejoin it to the domain #net ads join -U [EMAIL PROTECTED] Make sure everything OK. #net ads testjoin #getent passwd #getent group Check winbind # wbinfo -t # wbinfo -u On Thu, Jul 31, 2008 at 3:40 AM, Lothar Belle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > we have got a samba server (3.0.28) (SLES10 SP1 64bit) > It is a member in a windows 2000 Domain > ( joined with "net join") > > Now i have to rename the Server. > > Windows XP have a command to do this: > --- > netdom renamecomputer meincomputer /newname:deincomputer _ > /userD:meinedomäne\administrator /passwordd:* _ > /usero:administrator /passwordo:* /reboot:60 > --- > Is there any prefered way to do this with samba? > How can i find any documentation about this matter? > > Lothar > > > > > > > ____________________________________________________________ > Großes Kino für zu Hause - Kostenlos für alle WEB.DE Nutzer! > Jetzt kostenlos anmelden unter http://www.blockbuster.web.de > > -- Regards, Conrad Lawes
