I tried that syntax from a Samba/2.2.4 FreeBSD installation. The attempt failed. I set the debug level to 10, and discovered that the connection attempt was being made to a completely bogus IP address! So I dropped the '-r PDC' argument, since it looked like the code in smbpasswd would figure out the PDC without specifying it. That worked fine! "nmblookup" has no difficulty resolving the PDC's name to its correct IP address. Some sort of bug lurks there... :) Jim -- Jim Watt [EMAIL PROTECTED] Applied Biosystems Voice (desk): +1 408 577 2228 3833 North First Street Fax: +1 408 894 9307 San Jose CA 95134-1701 Voice (main): +1 408 577 2200 -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
