Hi all

I am trying to set up a Ubuntu Samba server from scratch. I did this last year with 2.2. I need a PDC and roaming profiles. Problem is I can't join the domain with my lone test PC running NT4. I am getting a message saying that the machine account cant be established. Her is the log data;

2005/08/03 20:30:08, 0] rpc_server/srv_samr_nt.c:_samr_create_user(2324)
_samr_create_user: Running the command `/usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/ false \-d /dev/null l200772$' gave 1
useradd: unable to lock password file

Testparm runs oK, I have encrypt password = yes, I have been studying the Official Samba 3 How to guide but can't figure this out.

I can "net use" the server from the client and map a home share. Smbclient gives me :

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ smbclient -L Ubuntu

        MDKGROUP             LOCALHOST
        TCCGIRLS             UBUNTU


Note: MDKGROUP has Samba services turned off and L200772 is the NT workstation that I am trying to join the domain with.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Mark
