[Samba] Weird..

[Igor Debacker]

but my machines are linux boxes..

well i realised what is happening
i'll re-write the story so new ppl can help me..

i had a linux box which was my alpha machine, after configuring winbind and
samba to log into the nt 2k server i cloned this linux box, so i could be
able to install it in other machines
i installed it in other 5 machines .. changed their netbios and ip, but when
i tryed to use these new machines .. only the last machine i turn on could
be able to log in.. in some way they were conflicting.. list members told me
it was something with SID, i tryed to delete MACHINE.SID and re-starting the
service, but it did not work.. so i looked for machines in my network
neighborhood using my win2k server, but they are not there.. only my alpha
machine name is there.. i looked into the active directory, and they are not
there either, so now i need to add each one of these new machines to the
domain.. i already tryed smbpasswd -j domain -r pdcname -U admin .. but it
did not create their registers in the active directory.

one more thing.. when i ping my alpha machine name (ping machine_name) it
always returns me the last turned on machine ip.

i think i just need an efective way of joining these machines to the domain,
an way which they'll be registered in the active directory, as i did with my
alpha machine .. i don't know what i am missing..

thanx for help..

any idea ?

Igor
