In 2.2.4 I had to change the registry in Windows XP in order to join a Samba domain.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SYSTEM->CurrentControlSet->Services->Netlogon->Parameters

Change the value of

requiresignorseal

to

0

of course I am using 2.2.4 so it may be different for Samba 3


Yes that is no longer required since samba 3.0.0 I believe, definately not in the current releases.

Hello John,

I also like your books "Samba-3 by Example: and :The Official Samba-3 Howto and Reference Guide".

Between these books, I managed to test the procedure of migrating our existing NT4 PDC to Samba PDC.

The migration is successful for the most parts. I am able to verify that the users/group SIDs/Passwords are correct.

However, Windows 2000/XP computers failed to find the samba Domain Controller. They can rejoin the domain without any problem.

I verified that the SIDs in 2000/XP is the same as the corresponding one in LDAP backend and there is a SambaNTPassword entry but I don't have a way to check if they are migrated correctly.

I have no clue how Window 2000/XP determines if an expected domain is available and what are the conversations between the workstation, samba, and ldap. I monitored the tcpdump during the time a Windows XP started loging in as a domain user and the time it failed not being able to find a domain, most of the traffic is to the LDAP server. What was it looking for?

I believe eventually I would see a sesson in your books on What Went Wrong With Mirgration (WWWM). Can I have a preview of that Session now???

       Thank you very much!
