[Samba] Domain trust problem? (3.0 alpha 23)

[Ladner, Eric (Eric.Ladner)]

Help!

I have two computers, both running HP-UX 11.0, both running 3.0 alpha23
(the second computer's samba trees were copied from the first, so they
are identical).

Mapping a drive from an XP SP1 computer has NO problems on the first HP
server.  On the second one, it displays the message "Configuration
information could not be read from the domain controller, either because
the machine is unavailible, or access has been denied."

The smb.conf files are identical (config below).

One thing I did notice and try to connect is that in the secrets.tdb
file on the first computer there was a MACHINE_PASSWORD entry for the
first computer.  The second computer, after firing up samba the first
time added an entry for the other computer but it didn't have a
machine_password.  I'm not sure how the password entry was added to the
first computer since it never was actually added to the domain.  I tried
deleting the secrets.tdb file on the second computer and tried to
recreate it but haven't had any luck.


[/opt/samba/private]$ strings secrets.tdb
TDB file
SECRETS/SID/MEDEA
SECRETS/MACHINE_PASSWORD/CTnnMF,R8kP,8ckm
SECRETS/SID/CT

The second machine only has the "SECRETS/SID/system" entry.
