I have setup my linux machine (Fedora Core2) to kinit to my windows 2003
server.
It has added itself to the active directory with no errors
I can use smbclient //server/c$ -k and view all the files on the server.
I installed and configured winbind. I can do a wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g and
return the list of users and groups from the active directory.
I have done a getent passwd and getgroups and winbind has assigned the
active directory users and groups the proper unix uid's and gid's.
I can even assign ownership to files but I must use DOMAINPREFIX\\username
in order to do so. IS THIS THE CORRECT WAY TO DO THAT?
I can add the user to the smbpasswd file using "smbpasswd -a
DOMAINPREFIX\\username" and it gets added.
This tells me that unix knows the user exits.
Whether I add the username to the smbpasswd file or not I still cannot
access any of the samba shares. It continuously prompts me for a username
and password when I access it from a windows machine.
I guessing that the password isn't getting pulled from the active directory
for the user accounts. But I'm not sure.
