I'm trying to use samba shares on a RedHat 8 server for storage on my network with an NT box as PDC.
OK, the join domain commands: [root@localhost samba]# smbpasswd -j INFOWARE -r 192.168.1.180 -U Administrator Password: Error connecting to 192.168.1.180 Unable to join domain INFOWARE. [root@localhost samba]# smbpasswd -j INFOWARE -r 192.168.1.180 cli_net_req_chal: Error NT_STATUS_INVALID_COMPUTER_NAME cli_nt_setup_creds: request challenge failed modify_trust_password: unable to setup the PDC credentials to machine 192.168.1.180. Error was : NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL. 2003/02/12 13:38:36 : change_trust_account_password: Failed to change password for domain INFOWARE. Unable to join domain INFOWARE. so I manually added the box to the domain on the NT box. The windows boxes can see the server but not the shares with security = DOMAIN set. With security = SERVER the windows boxes can see the server and the shares as well as mapping the public share, but you can't do anything with the mapped share. The home directory is visable and windows tries to map, but authentication fails. Yes, everyone can ping everyone else... any ideas???
