With the security set to server I get the error "Failed to join domain: Invalid domain role". If security is set to ADS it asks for a password and I get "Using short domain name..." and " could not connect to server DC.mydomain" and " The user name or password was not correct". >> Does this BPC-solution by any chance require that passwords are sent in >> clear text?

I don't think the kernel cifs module does kerberos or client >signing, though. Just checked the Windows Default Domain Policy to make sure. The LAN Manager Authentication level is set to "Send NTLMv2 response only/Refuse LM & NTLM". This is another enforced policy from the University IT-department. I don't know however if this is a problem for BPC and the authentication. Maybe somebody else knows. -- /Sorin
