Brandon, I believe the proper syntax for adding machines is smbpasswd -a -m <machine_name$>, if that was a type try deleting the user you are using to test with using smbpasswd -x <userid> and then read from the command line smbpasswd -a <userid>.
I had problems with users id's created by SWAT when using WIN2K and WINXP workstations.

Setup: samba-2.2.6.p2_1 as Windows PDC Installed via ports on FreeBSD 4.7 RELEASE on install I enabled Syslog support, Recycle Bin, and Quota support. Everything installs properly I created the groups machines:201, and admins:200. Added every user with the command "smbpasswd -a <username>" Also added every machine with this command "smbpasswd -a -m <machine_name>" Edited the password file via "vipw" And added the lines in it corresponding machine_name$:*:201:201::0:0:Machine account for a machine:/dev/null:false After that I created the following smb.conf file. -------------------------------------------------------- # Global parameters [global] workgroup = LEOPOLDNET netbios name = GRUMPY server string = PDC for Leopold Center encrypt passwords = Yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*UNIX*password* %n\n *ReType*new*UNIX*password* %n\n unix password sync = Yes log level = 2 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 add user script = /usr/sbin/adduser -home /dev/null -group machines -shell /bin/false logon script = %U.bat logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U logon drive = h: domain logons = Yes os level = 64 preferred master = True domain master = True wins server = 129.186.142.179 [netlogon] browseable = no path = /raid/samba/netlogon write list = @admin, flint, root [homes] comment = Home Directories read only = No browseable = No [profiles] path = /raid/samba/profiles browseable = no writable = yes read only = No create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 browseable = No [raid] path = /raid browseable = No read only = No vfs object = /usr/local/lib/samba/recycle.so vfs options = recycle=.recycle [private] path = /raid/samba/storage/private security= user browseable = No read only = no directory mask = 0700 valid users = test, flint, root, zack vfs object = /usr/local/lib/samba/recycle.so vfs options = recycle=.recycle [public] path = /raid/samba/storage/public browseable = No read only = no create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 valid users = test, flint, root, zack vfs object = /usr/local/lib/samba/recycle.so vfs options = recycle=.recycle ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Started samba by uncomment the lines in /etc/inetd.conf associated smbd and nmbd. On the windows XP machines, I did the following. Applied the sign_or_seal registry patch and proceeded to add them to the domain. The first machine went fine... Login, ran login.bat, and Profiles copied back the samba server for roaming profiles when logged out. I proceeded to add another machine to the domain. It added it to the domain, but once I restarted the machine, I tried to login and "NO GO" on both of the machines now. Is there something I'm doing wrong when adding the second machine, please tell me if I am, or tell me a way to fix this annoying problem. Have tried Samba 3.0 too, and even older versions then the one I said earlier. I'm thinking this is a bug of some sort. Any comments are appreciated. --Brandon Hagedorn -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
