Greetings,
This is my first post (hopefully not too newbie for this group). Thank you
in advance to anyone who feels compelled to help. I'm trying to get a copy
of Samba 2.2.2 running on Solaris 9 to authenticate against an NT domain. I
have successfully done this on a Redhat 7.2 box which is running Samba 2.2.4
on the same domain. As best as I can tell, the configurations of these
sambas seem the same but something must be wrong. I can successfully add
the box to the domain and access it fine using 'share' authentication but
when I try to use 'domain' authentication, I get "Incorrect password or
unknown username" and the following is generated in log.smbd....
