I have a strange feeling that the clue is in the "server-manager" since I don't use it to join domain at all.

I have Debian/unstable x86 Linux 2.6.7 Samba 3.0.7 as a PDC.
Workstation is WinXP Pro SP1.

To join domain I just go into System Properties/Computer Name/Change... and put Domain name in the "Member of/Domain:" field. Then I click "Ok", put Domain administrator's name and password in popuped "Computer Name Changes" window, and click "Ok" again. After getting "Welcome to DOMAIN domain." and "You must restart this computer for the changes to take effect." popups I reboot and have computer as a domain member.

Do you join domain some other way?

Interesting case... The request comes from Windows to update machine account with a bunch of new values and in this request RID of the primary group for the account (group_rid) is listed as 513 (0x201).


If you look at the 'fields_present' in the request you will notice that it requests almost all information to be updated - 09f827fa (this is a bitwise mask of fields to be updated). When I add a computer in my domain I have it only '00c4 fields_present : 01100002'. Note, that on


How do you add? Details welcome.


So, I suspect the problem is somewhere on Windows side. I haven't found any Domain Policy requiring all accounts to be in "Domain Users" group which is the only thing which comes to my mind as a probably cause for the problem.


Strange. @home I have WinXP SP1 only, with standard server-manager from
the WinNT4 Resource Kit.

At the customer we have W2K with a unknown server-manager, but same
results @ samba 3.0.7 on RH box.


I hope somebody having more experience with different Domain/Windows configurations can help in this case.


May I install an old samba 3.0.1 to test that?
