well after so much work of trouble shooting and still not being able to
consistanly log in, in the morings, after a night of noone logging into
the samba box, I disabled the nt domain feature, and just started to use
it as a member server. basically user security, self authenticating
instead of going to the PDC to authenticate. this started to seem like
it was going top work. faster lgging in was happening. but then again,
after the night, every morning, still noone can login except after
multiple trys. so I put alittle hash/bang in the init.d directory to
the effect of:
#!/etc/rc.d/init.d/restart
the restart file is basically this:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb restart
I then went into crontab -u root -e
and made a new crontab for daily to execute the hash bash at 6:30 am so
that it restarts samba at 6:30 am and then everyone comes in at 7ish.
well even after that they still can't login successfully. it seems that
I am the only one that can log in in the morings successfully......also
they are on the other side of the building and go thru a switch, if that
makes any difference.....
attached is an output of my smb.conf file.........feel free to give me
any help at all, lest I lose more haor than I already have,
thanks...larry clark
