Creating NT machine accounts automatically

[Tobias Held]

Dear mailing list!

For test purposes I use a Samba-TNG 2.6 on a SuSE 6.4 system with some NT clients. For some days I haven't been able to create machine accounts automatically any more. I didn't change anything in my system. The same is at my linux box at home. The NT workstations can only log onto the Samba controlled domain if I create the machine account manually using samedit. Can anyone help me. I've included one of my smb.conf files at the end of my mail. I can also mail the 2nd if necessary.

My 2nd question is: I've heard of a registry hack which removes roaming profiles on the NT workstations if the user logs out. Has someone any experience with that?

Thank for your help and sorry for my bad English.

Regards

Tobias Held
