Re: [Samba] samba PDC/NIS client
If your NIS passwd file did NOT have a valid password, maybe samba or unix was rejecting logins as a security measure.

I've got a very similar setup to you. Except I use a smbpasswd file. No, I don't have this option enabled. I am not sure how it is relevant. Problem summary: The samba PDC is an NIS client "getent passwd" retruns the passwd data. The user's SAMBA password was set using smbpasswd The user's NIS passwd was set using yppasswd So far all the same. ALL I had to do to allow domain logins was: ypcat passwd | grep >> /etc/passwd Why duplicate the password entries. I just have them in NIS and /etc/passwd just has the system passwords. Note that after copying the user details to /etc/passwd, the password that was set with "smbpasswd" was the password that was used with the successful domain login. Don't really uinderstand what you mean by "domain logins" 1. Create the user under linux first 2. Use smbpasswd to add the user to samba You now have a user in both linux and samba but remember the passwords are stored separately, changing one does not change the other. 3. Edit /etc/nsswitch.conf. Set passwd:files nis shdow: files Removing the "nis" entry from "shadow:" in /etc/nsswitch.conf solved the issue. I don't understand why, but it did .
