Win XP logons.

[Elliot Mackenzie]

I have exactly the same problem.  I do not get any error in the
smbd/nmbd logs (in fact, it is as if no logon request is ever received
by samba).

Here is the situation:
- Samba 2.2.2 (used the binary on the samba website)
- Connecting with two different winXP test machines
- Have a local subnet 192.168.1.255
- Have a line wins server = Yes in smb.conf (and yes it is loading the
right conf file)
- Removed all remnants of a previous samba install, and reinstalled with
a smb.conf that was known to work with win2k sp1 machines and 2.2.1.
- If I turn off "allow netbios over tcp/ip" on the xp machines, logon
works, but I cannot access shares <g>.  If I turn it on, I can't log on,
but I can access shares with the right un/pw logged in as a local user.
- After restarting samba, nmbd says it has become the domain master for
the domain successfully.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Howdy,

I've been using samba for a while, but only as a workgroup member. I
decided to play with 
it as a domain controller, and am having a problem or two. I've set up
the machines (samba
2.2.1a/OpenBSD 2.9) to the letter as described in the
installtion/configuration guide. I 
have no problem joining the domain, but when I go to log on, Windows
complains that it either
cannot find a domain controller, or that there isn't a machine account
in the domain. This
throws me a little, as it has no problem joining the domain to begin
with, just logging on.

The error reported by samba is:
[2001/10/17 20:56:55, 0]
rpc_server/srv_samr_nt.c:_samr_query_useraliases(2454)
  _samr_query_useraliases: Not yet implemented.

Is this something whacky with XP (it is a legal version)? I don't have
any 2k clients to 
compare against, unfortunatly. As previously suggested on the list, I've
tried the current
cvs, but the same problem occurs.

Has anyone had any luck getting an XP client to log on to the domain? If
so, a prod in the
right direction would be much appreciated. Please cc me, as I'm not
subscribed to the list.
