That did it, thanks much!

I Have a "nobody" account. However I didn't have that line in there, or
rather it was commented out. So, I uncommented it, restarted samba and
winbind to no avail. No luck with the magic crystal this time. So that
we have a clear distinct crystal, I will paste my smb.conf file. My bad.
Comments removed.



Ok. Much better info this time! :)


You are configured to be a domain member, therefor you do not need tdbsam.
Also, since you are not doing local authentication you should not specify
"obey pam restrictions". Both "password chat" and "passwd bprogram" are
not relevant for a Domain Member.

So, comment out the lines above and it should work.

Cheers,

I have set up winbind, made the nsswitch settings, joined the current NT
Domain, got back the message that said "Welcome to Domain".  When I try
to access the PC, it brings up IPC$ and wants a password.  The log for
that workstation says "PAM:  UNKNOWN PAM ERROR (9) during Account
Management for User:  Domain+USERNAME!"  Then it says "PAM: Account
Validation Failed - Rejecting User Domain+USERNAME!"

Does anyone have any helpful ideas?




Brandon,

You are asking us to exercise our worn-out crystal balls by not providing
your smb.conf file, so here goes:

My guess is that your UNIX system does NOT have an account called
"nobody". I guess also that given that your system does not have a nobody
account, you also do not have the following entry in your smb.conf file
[globals] section:

guest account = 'a_valid_unix_account'

So let me know, did my crystal ball work this time. Dang, it's been so
unreliable lately! :)
