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

2005-06-15 Thread Robert Schetterer
Hi, having a valid working internal dns is nice to have
and gives you the second chance to name resolution ( depends on
configure issues )
but the prime lookup in the most times is the wins service, as its
looked normally first by the win clients,
and many applications i.e. old outlook versions.
So configure samba as wins server or use an existing one ( win 2000
server and up )
But i guess this may not be your only problem so show us your samba conf
and decribe your network layout.
You will find adding info in the samba faqs and in your samba logs

 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)?

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.
