[Samba] pdc win2k sp3 clients/samba 2.27a/redhat 8.0 got it working now !

[Raj Saxena]

OK guys,
        After beating my head I got it to work !!

I setup a new test machine with redhat 8.0 and used the stock samba in it
2.25-10 build.

This seems to work like a charm and I was able to go through with it with
out a problem.

Go figure why the compiled version 2.27a just didn't want to work?

Anyways I found a doc off of the Linuxtoday.com site that some girl named
Carla put together. I will take her text and make a new step by step manual
for everyone based on my experience.

Thanks for everyones help.

Raj

It sounds like you've done your homework, but this is quite a good document
in
case you haven't seen it.

I know it's possible to connect a w2k machine to a samba pdc as I've done
it.
Which is not to say anything about you, but just to confirm that it is
actually possible.

Good luck,
