Hello,
we have some problems with our configuration for 2 Samba Servers
(one of them is a PDC and the other is a domain member).
The configuration is like this:
** SERVER1 (PDC) **
workgroup = MYDOMAIN
netbios name = SERVER1
security = DOMAIN
encrypt passwords = Yes
domain logons = Yes
wins support = Yes
** SERVER 2 (domain member) **
workgroup = MYDOMAIN
netbios name = SERVER2
security = DOMAIN
encrypt passwords = Yes
domain logons = Yes
password server = SERVER1
Then, If we try to login in MYDOMAIN from a Windows 95/98 workstation,
the logon process start.
Our LOGON.BAT (in SERVER2) have the following:
NET USE G: \\SERVER2\A
NET USE H: \\SERVER2\B
Note: with MSNET32.DLL we have forced the logon server to SERVER2 for
domain MYDOMAIN using this registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Preferred
Server\MYDOMAIN]
"LogonServer"="SERVER2"
The logon is ok, the user has mapped the drives G: and H: to the right
\\SERVER2 BUT THE PROBLEM is that we have a connection to
"\\SERVER1\NETLOGON" !!!
What's happened? Why this connection is made? Why the connection isn't
for \\SERVER2\NETLOGON?
Any idea?
PS: Any of you know what's the process for a Windows logon? i.e. from
where the "logon.bat" is loaded?
Many thanks!
