Re: [Samba] samba 3 + DNS(SRV records) + Active Directory Clients

2005-06-15 Thread saravanan ganapathy
Hai ,

My network layout as follows

Samba Server - 192.168.50.5 (255.255.255.0)
My Clients are in 192.168.50.0 , 192.168.51.0 &
192.168.52.0 network.

My win2k Clients which are in 50.0 network able to
join into PDC. But clients which are in other networks
couldn't join. 

No broadcasts allowed between the networks. 

In this case, what would be the best configuration to
bring my win2k clients into samba PDC? 

My smb.conf as follows 


netbios name = pdc
workgroup = sarav.net
server string = Samba Server %v
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192
SO_SNDBUF=8192
local master = yes
os level = 65
domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
domain logons = yes
logon script = %m.bat
logon path = \\%L\Profiles\%u
passdb backend = smbpasswd guest
dns proxy = no

[netlogon]
   comment = Network Logon Service
   path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon
   guest ok = yes
   writable = no

[Profiles]
path = /var/lib/samba/profiles
browseable = no
guest ok = yes
writable = yes

Please suggest me a solution for my problem.

[Samba] samba 3 + DNS(SRV records) + Active Directory Clients

2005-06-15 Thread saravanan ganapathy
Hai ,

  I am new to samba. I have configured samba 3 as PDC
and when I add win2k client into my DC, the client
says 'unable to find 'mydomain' name , may be due to
DNS Issue. I have also configured bind as dns server
and I have the forward & reverse records for
'mydomain'. 

I read that I need to add some SRV records for active
directory clients(win2k/winxp). But I couldn't find
any tips for this in the document.

Can you pls help me what are all the records(srv) to
be added in my dns(bind)?

[Samba] couldn't find DC from other subnet

2005-06-15 Thread saravanan ganapathy
Hai ,

 I am new to samba . I would like to setup samba as DC
for my local LAN. I have configured samba-3.0.7 in
Mandrake and win2k clients(within the same subnet) are
able to login to this server by using NBNS protocol.

   But the clients from other subnet are not able to
find the DC. My understanding is that, first the
clients try to find the DC using NBNS and they
couldn't get any response since the DC is in another
network. Then the clients try to find using DNS. They
are mainly looking for _ldap._tcp.dc.-msdcs.domain . I
am using linux dns and I have forward & reverse
records for the workgroup name. I read that I need to
add some SRV records in my DNS.  What are all the
records to be added? Any other way to solve this
problem.

Pls hlep me .

Sarav
