I'm now getting another error in a different spot that I hadn't tried before. If I go to a share \\newdc\\whatever, right-click a folder in it, go Properties, then the Security tab, then Advanced, then Effective Permissions, then Select, I get this:

The program cannot open the required dialog box because it cannot determine whether the computer named "newdc" is joined to a domain. Close this message, and try again. [Close]

And upon clicking Close:

---------------------------
Security
---------------------------
Unable to display the user selection dialog.

The RPC server is unavailable.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

I'm using this particular share in production at the moment so I'll have to wait until after-hours to try restarting Samba to see if it goes away.

Has anyone else come across either of these errors? Why does Samba's equivalent of the RPC server seem to function fine and then after some amount of time no longer seem to be available?

Thanks,
Kev

                          The really odd thing is, currently, it's
        telling me
                 this if I try to
                          access it from OLDDC, running Windows Server
        2003.  But
                 if I
                          remote into
                          another computer (GEYSER) on the network
        that's running
                 Windows
                          XP, I
                          can access \\NEWDC just fine.  Back to OLDDC
        and it still
                          doesn't work.

                          Besides the OS I noticed another difference,
        running "echo
                          %logonserver%" from GEYSER, it reports \\G5,
        whereas
                 running that on
                          OLDDC reports \\OLDDC.  I know this is normal
                 behaviour, but I
                          wonder if
                          it has anything to do with it.  I also wonder
        if, if I
                 leave GEYSER
                          logged in long enough, I'll have the same
        result on it
                 as I do
                          on OLDDC.

                          So nobody else is having this browsability
        problem, eh?

        eventually not
                                  browsable without
                                  restart


                                           I have a SerNet Samba 4.0.8
AD DC
                 running on
                                  CentOS 6.4 (newdc)
                                           replicating from a W2K3 DC
        (olddc).
                 �When I
                                  first launch Samba
                                  using
                                           `sudo samba`, I can go to the
        Windows
                 server
                                  and browse to
                                           \\newdc in
                                           Explorer, and I see
        mytestshare, netlogon,
                                  printers, sysvol, and
                                           "Printers and Faxes".

                                           After a while (I'm not sure
        how long
                 precisely,
                                  but under 24
                                           hours) I
                                           could not navigate to \\newdc
        without the
                                  following error:

                                           But in the interim, I had not
        been doing
                                  anything in the system,
                                           so I'm
                                           not sure what might have
        caused it.
                 �One time
                                  it even happened
                                  on a
                                           weekend when no backup or
        anything
                 particularly
                                  special is
                                  scheduled
                                           while I was away.

                                           Anyway, running `sudo killall
        samba`
                 and then
                                  `sudo samba`
                                  makes it
                                           suddenly browsable again.

                                           This is happening every day.
        �I guess
                 it would
                                  be best to figure
                                           this
                                           problem out before we make
        Samba the
                 only DC.

                                           Here's my smb.conf, mostly
        set up by
