I have spent the last days wondering why my domain logon doesn't work and
came up with a stange effect:
My setup:
Samba 1.9.17alpha5 on the server
Win95 (950a) on the clients
everything configured for Domain Master on Samba
It all works OK and domain logons from Win95 do what they're supposed to,
except if I use mixed-case passwords!
My own password works fine, as long as I do NOT use the samba box as
domain controller (logon controller).
I even tried changing my password to something all lowercase and logging
on to the domain (successfully!) then changing it back to mixed case and
mounting some drives (again successfully!)
But it won't let me log on with the mixed case password.
I tried (nearly) all possible combinations -> mixed-case fails at domain
logon....
I tried fiddling with the case options on the netlogon share, but tu no
avail.
Has anybody else experienced this (and found a solution)?
My smb.conf (excerpts):
workgroup = QSPR
[global]
os level = 35
load printers = no
security = user
debug level = 1
log file = /usr/local/samba/var/smb-log.%m
max log size = 2000
server string = QSPR Server (Samba %v)
character set = iso8859-1
mangle case = no
case sensitive = no
; default case = lower
preserve case = yes
short preserve case = yes
encrypt passwords = no
create mode = 0755
read prediction = yes
valid chars = Ä:ä Ö:ö Ü:ü
max disk size = 1500
dead time = 15
comment = %S auf %h
;; This is supposed to enable Domain mastering
wins support = yes
domain master = yes
