Hello,
I'm getting a persistent error at login (effectively locking me out) on
two Win2k machines that were once assigned to a domain on my windows
network (win2k server was once the PDC, just changed to Samba)
Cannot log you into the primary because the system's computer account
is missing or the password was incorrect.
The old domain was:
yrbmag.yellowrat.com
and I'd like every just to be in workgroup YRBMAG
My configure file follows. What am I doing wrong? Is there a way to fake
the domain so I can login and switch to the workgroup? Luckily enough,
the previous admin here at the shop forgot the admin passwords for both
machines, rendering my job even harder. Super!
smb.conf:
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too
# many!) most of which are not shown in this example
#
# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash)
# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
# may wish to enable
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command
"testparm"
# to check that you have not made any basic syntactic errors.
