I am running on RedHat, but everything should be same on server side. Try adding the following lines into the smb.conf file:

password level = 8
username level = 8
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
unix password sync = yes
pam password change = yes
obey pam restrictions = yes

I have these lines in my conf and everything is working for me, even WinXP now.
The first two lines are for the case differences between Win & linux.
All version of win beyond Win95 defaults to encrypted passwords, hence line 3.
I have two password files, /etc/passwd for Linux & smbpasswd for Samba, users must be in both to authenticate, hence lines 4-5.
Lines 6-7 were in my default config and things work, so I did not question them.


If this does not work, please email me complete smb.conf file, and I will do a more thorough comparison.

Good Luck.

Hello,

I'm having problems using Samba as an primary domain controller. I am using debian woody as our platform.

The version of samba is "2.2.3a-12.3 for Debian" and i followed the instructions which can be found on the following url: http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/eserver/tutorials/samba/. In short this covers:
- creating the config file
- creating the users / groups
- creating directory structure
- configuring the windows client
I attached my config file's /logging from my debian woody system.


I did the following things on the windows client (Windows XP Professional 2002 Service Pack 1)
- Open the Local Security Policy editor (Start -> All Programs -> Administrative Tools -> Local Security Policy).
- Locate the entry "Domain member: Digitally encrypt or sign secure channel (always)". Disable it.
- Locate the entry "Domain member: Disable machine account password changes". Make sure it's disabled as well.
- Locate the entry "Domain member: Require strong (Windows 2000 or later) session key". Disable it.
- Next, download the WinXP_SignOrSeal registry patch from www.samba.org <http://www.samba.org> or collect it from the Further resources: Downloads and developerWorks <http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/eserver/tutorials/samba/samba-6-2.html> section at the end of this tutorial. Apply it by double-clicking and answering Yes to the dialog prompt.
- Now join the domain the same as you would for Windows NT or 2000. Right-click My Computer, select Properties, Computer Name, and Change. Or click the Network ID button and run the Network Wizard.


I put some screenshots of windows on the following locations: http://www.nergens.org/samba/ComputerNameChanges.PNG and http://www.nergens.org/samba/ComputerProperties.PNG

( i searched on the mailarchive, but i couldnt find any pointers / im kinda new to smb so i dont know how to debug)

Could someone please help me here?
