Hello again.
I finally managed to setup samba as a PDC and I was delighted to see that it
actually worked this time, thanks to a few people here on the list. I could
join the domain from the a computer running XP but I'm having some trouble
when I try to connect from another computer. I get the following message;
"A domain controller for the domain could not be contacted
The error was: 'DNS name does not exist.'
(error code 0x0000232B RCODE_NAME_ERROR)
The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.DOMAIN NAME
Common causes of this error include the following:
- The DNS SRV record is not registered in DNS."
My smb.conf is:
[global]
workgroup = AE.LOCAL
server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu)
obey pam restrictions = Yes
passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://127.0.0.1
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n
*Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* .
syslog = 0
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 1000
add machine script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w "%u"
logon script = logon.bat
logon path = \\%N\profiles
logon drive = H:
logon home = \\%N\%U\data
domain logons = Yes
dns proxy = No
wins support = Yes
ldap admin dn = cn=admin,dc=ae,dc=local
ldap group suffix = ou=groups
ldap machine suffix = ou=machines
ldap passwd sync = Yes
ldap suffix = dc=ae,dc=local
ldap user suffix = ou=users
panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
path = /home/%S/data
valid users = %S
read only = No
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
browseable = No
[netlogon]
comment = Network Logon Service
path = /data/samba/netlogon
write list = @admins
guest ok = Yes
share modes = No
[profiles]
comment = Users profiles
path = /home/%U/profiles
read only = No
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
browseable = No
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
create mask = 0700
printable = Yes
browseable = No
[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /var/lib/samba/printers
I don't know if it helps, but the server and the client that can connect are
both running wireless network cards, and the computer that cannot connect is
not.
Any ideas how I can solve this?
Huyth.
