[Samba] Unable to join domain, apparent DNS problem
This isn't exactly a Samba problem, but I am hoping the experts here can help me. I have been trying to get my OpenIndiana system to join a Samba4 domain and I was running into multiple problems. So I decided to test against a true Windows Server (2003) domain, to see if there is something wrong with my client-side setup. Attempting to join the WS2003 AD domain also fails. Snooping the network traffic reveals this: client: DNS query _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.ALLENLAN.NET: type SRV, class IN DC: no such server I found this MS link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc961719.aspx Which says, in part: _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.DnsDomainName Allows a client to locate a domain controller (dc) of the domain named by DnsDomainName . All Windows 2000 Server based domain controllers register this SRV record. I am very new to Active Directory setup. So it is quite likely I have made a basic configuration error on the WS2003 AD setup. But true Windows clients can join the domain successfully. Any ideas? Does Samba4 automatically put this SRV record into its internal DNS server? Thank you.

You can try to find your record doing: (taking from the official how-to) host -t SRV _ldap._tcp.samdom.example.com. 2013/2/22 Lee Allen l...@leecallen.com This isn't exactly a Samba problem, but I am hoping the experts here can help me.

Maybe you can try to do a setup domain again. 2013/2/22 Lee Allen l...@leecallen.com That also fails: lal...@oi.allenlan.net:~$ host -t SRV _ldap._tcp.allenlan.net.

Re: [Samba] Unable to join domain, apparent DNS problem
I did quite a bit more research on this. Everything I read says an AD DNS should automatically set up those entries. I found a few trouble-shooting documents that suggested checking them, but nothing indicating why they might be wrong, and what to do about it. I agree that tearing down the domain and re-building it from scratch is the right approach. In the meantime, I returned to my Samba4 project, and found an error I had made on the client side. 5 minutes later my openindiana system successfully joined my Samba4 domain. So at the moment I don't have any real interest in pursuing the Windows Server issue. Thanks for your help.

Re: [Samba] Unable to join domain, apparent DNS problem
I think he's seeing this with both S4 and WS2003 as a DC, so I don't know that setting up the domain again will solve the problem. Provisioning a domain on WS2003 (or S4 TBH) is a very simple process. It's hard to say with such little info, but I'm guessing it's a client network configuration - is the DC's IP configured for the primary DNS server?
