I'm still struggling with this if anyone can help. I'm back tracking through the HOWTO and realised that I hadn't created a machine trust account.
So I've done: # groupadd machines # /usr/sbin/useradd -g machines -d /var/lib/nobody -c "Test Server" -s /bin/false server1 # passwd -l server1 Locking password for user server1. # smbpasswd -a -m server1 Failed to modify password entry for user server1$ Please can anyone tell me why this last step fails? > > From: Leon Stringer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: 2008/06/17 Tue AM 11:13:14 GMT > To: <samba@lists.samba.org> > Subject: [Samba] Accessing member server prompts for credentials > > Hi, > > I'm trying to join a server as an AD member but it isn't working. > > I do: > > kinit [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > which prompts for the password and displays nothing else.
