I am a sysadmin at a small private school and I am trying to run a program across two different domains.
Here is the basic setup. I have a staff and a student domain controlled by Samba on two different servers. Some staff can authenticate on both servers (using the same user name and password) but no students can log into staff computers. All client computers are running Windows XP Pro. Recently we purchased a "network" upgrade to our library card catalog. The library computer is on the staff domain. The program targets a shared directory on the library computer. The share is set up as open as I can make it. So that all users can read. That is all the program requires. The program works fine from any staff computers. The program works fine from student computers that a staff person is logged into. The program pops open a windows authentication window if a student is logged into a student computer. Security is set to user on both servers. I tried setting "Map to guest = bad user" but it did not seem to make any difference. Is there something I am missing? I really need to find a way to make this work since the point of it was mainly for the students to be able to search the card catalog from the student computers. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have googled but I can't seem to hit upon the right combination of words to bring up useful information.
