[Samba] ERROR: Unable to fetch machine password

2004-11-01 Thread Mike Box
Samba 3.0.4 ...

I receive ERROR: Unable to fetch machine password from smbclient.

Fetch machine password from where?

This Samba is a member (security=domain) of a Windows 2003 domain.
When executing smbclient from within a script (Unix printer driver)
to route Unix (lp) print to shared desktop printer, the above message
is produced.  (The same script has worked for years for Samba 2.0.7 as
a member of a Windows NT domain.)

Thanks, in advance, for guidance in resolving this problem.

Re: [Samba] Samba-3.0.4 - PANIC: Could not generate a machine SID

2004-07-20 Thread Mike Box
Thanks to Jim C. for his suggestion of winbind, which I will also pursue.

However, this specific problem was corrected by moving the private directory 
from NFS to a local filesystem.

I recall experiencing this situation before.  Okay, Solaris gurus, what exactly 
causes this problem?  Is it unique to Solaris?  Is it something to be avoided by 
software (Samba) developers?

Searching the archives for a solution to this problem revealed no solution.

Recently I built Samba-3.0.4 from downloaded source on a computer running
Solaris 8.  I wish to have this computer join a Windows NT 4.0 domain (as
only a member.)  I have another computer currently running Samba-2.0.7 as
a member in this domain. (The goal is to have Samba-3.0.4 replace
Samba-2.0.7.)  After a successful build, I copied the Samba-2.0.7 smb.conf
to Samba-3.0.4 and changed the necessary identification statements. (testparm
runs clean.)  If needed, I will post smb.conf.

Key smb.conf statements:
security = domain
encrypt passwords = yes
password server = xyzzy

Samba is started via (complete path not shown):
.../nmbd -D
.../smbd -D
