I am currently using 2.0.7 on a Solaris 8 box, using password authentication
via a W2K Domain Controller. Compiled up the new version (without winbind)
and installed into a new directory. Used smbpasswd to join the machine to
the domain, which was successful and started samba. Whenever I try to
connect to a share on the solaris box, I get the following error in the
samba log file:
connect_to_domain_password_server: unable to setup the PDC credentials to
machine DOMCTRL1. Error was: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED.
If I edit the smb.conf file and set "encrypt passwords" to No, it works OK.
Here is the smb.conf file for info
[global]
workgroup = DOMAIN1
netbios name = SERVER1
security = DOMAIN
encrypt passwords = Yes
password server = domctrl1
log file = /var/samba/logs/log.%m
max log size = 50
printcap name = /opt/samba/sambaprintcap
os level = 0
comment = Samba Server on server1
oplocks = No
utmp = Yes
[smb207]
comment = Product top level share using links
path = /export/samba-2.0.7
write list = user1
create mask = 0774
directory mask = 0775
force directory mode = 0775
guest ok = Yes
Reverting back to the 2.0.7 version works perfectly. Any hints or
suggestions gratefully received.
Paul.
