I had this *exact* problem on a 100% fresh install of Lucid Lynx on a newly formatted hard disk. The very first thing I did after completing installation was to try to join the domain, so I didn't have time to break anything as far as I know. The one change I tried to resolve this was removing mdns4 from /etc/nsswitch.conf
`lw-get-dc-name domain.name` could find the DC just fine. $ ps --ppid `pidof lwsmd` PID TTY TIME CMD 984 ? 00:00:00 lwregd 1128 ? 00:00:00 dcerpcd 1190 ? 00:00:00 netlogond 1253 ? 00:00:00 eventlogd 1337 ? 00:00:00 lwiod 1420 ? 00:00:00 lsassd When trying to start lwsmd manually, I got: 20100506113746:ERROR: Could not start bootstrap service: LW_ERROR_SERVICE_UNRESPONSIVE I found your instructions here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/likewise-open/+bug/543963/comments/8 With that I was able to join the domain, and everything works now. I hope this helps you figure out what went wrong. -- unknown error prevent from joining domain https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/543733 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
