Hello and thank you for reading my post.
My problem is about joining Windows machines to a Samba3 domain.
Below is what happened:
1) I installed the three servers DHCPD, BIND9 and SAMBA on a machine A
running Debian Wheezy.
I managed to join all the Windows machines in the LAN to the Samba3
domain properly.
I insist on the fact that, at this point, everything was running
properly: I could see and access all the shares in the LAN.
2) Then, I tried to join a brand new Windows Server 2012 R2 to the domain
and it failed.
3) I decided to install Samba4 on the machine A.
I couldn't make it work because I do not have enough time presently to
set up a Samba4 server as it's not straightforward.
So I decided to revert to the previous configuration with a Samba3
server.
After I did this nothing was working anymore.
The Windows machines failed to join the domain.
4) So I reinstalled on another machine B running Debian Wheezy the triplet
of services DHCPD, BIND9, SAMBA3.
Here is the problem:
now, every time I try to join a Windows machine to the domain (whether it is
an XP, a 7 or a Server 2003 OS) it fails with the message:
Can you help me solve that problem?
I've been checking my configurations: they look correct.
I don't know if there is something to do either on the Samba3 server or on
the Windows machines or on both of them to make this work again.
Best regards.
