That is expected because NT4 is a PDC and therefore believes it is authoritative for all authentication. It will not pass the authentication request through to Samba. > > - NT-SERVER 'Event Viewer' showed nothing of failed access >From it's perspective nothing has failed. > - NT-SERVER 'Server Manager' lists Samba as PDC and NT-SERVER as > workstation (not PDC or BDC) The vampire process registers the Samba server as a BDC. But you have to update it to PDC. The NT4 PDC still thinks your Samba server is a BDC and is looking for it to announce itself as such. Since it did not get the message that says, "Hi, I'm your friendly BDC" it should show a ghosted connection. ie: Grey icon that looks like any other domain member. The greyed out icon could show in color, but it will never show as more than a domain member machine. > - NT-SERVER User Manager for Domains shows all the accounts for the > domain, including the accounts that weren't on NT-SERVER domain prior to > net vampire (obviously talks to Samba server) - it does however > immediately open dialog - Tag is invalid and complains about that every > time I try to connect to DOMAIN Ok.
