Hi.
I have a Samba file server which is part of an AD domain. I can ssh to
the server using my AD username/password. I can also mount my home
directory under Windows. Everything works as I expect. However, I need
to give the server an alias. If I use "netbios name" to set that alias
in smb.conf, then "getent passwd <user>" stops working, and I can no
longer login. Why is that?
Jason.
