Not to ask the annoying ?'s, but the server that you're working from is indeed a member of the Samba domain (& not a separate domain/workgroup)?

  Yes, that's right.

So in your Ghost services properties, then your 'Log on as' entry looks like
this:
domain\root
?

domain admin group = root (in smb.conf)
I have defined the user 'root' in LDAP. On the client I added the domain
users to the administrators group. I try to run the services under this
root account on the domain but the services will only run under a local
system account and not under a domain account. That seems to be the
problem. With this user 'root' it is possible to manually join the client
to the domain and to logon to the domain.

I've tried about everything but still no solution....
Still hoping though :-)

I see - what type of domain account are you using? Your method is right
      
tho,
  
setting the services to run under a domain account. I just want you to be
absolutely sure that the account is administrator. If this is a test
environment, you could start by running the service as root, and see if
      
it
  
works then (though I would not do that in production).

Sorry to bother you again but in my situation with LDAP authentication
        
it
  
doesn't seem to work.

I'll explain the configuration in detail.

I have a Samba 2.2.8a domain controller which is compiled and
        
configured
  
with LDAP support.
The user and machine accounts are defined in LDAP. I manually added an
Windows XP workstation
to the domain (no problems here) using a root account also defined in
        
LDAP.
      
Now I would like to clone this machine to other machines using Norton
        
Ghost
      
7.5. Therefore I have set up
a Ghost Multicast Server. Now when I use to Ghost Console on the
        
multicast
  
server and try to add our domain
to the list of supported domains in Ghost I get the error "Procedure
        
number
      
out of range".
On the Ghost Multicast Server there is the "ghost configuration
        
server"
  
service and on the client machine
there is the "ghost client agent" service. Both of these services only
start with a local system account.
These services do not run under a domain account. If I try to run them
under a domain account I get this
error message: "The service did not respond to the start or control
        
request
      
in a timely fashion".

Like I said, manually adding a machine to the domain gives no problems
        
with
      
the specified root account
in LDAP (see below, I did not include all attributes off course).
dn: uid=root, ou=xxx, o=xxx, c=xxx
objectClass: sambaAccount
uid: root
rid: 1000
uidNumber: 0
gidNumber: 0

Kind regards,

Werner Maes

Yes - sorry. I made a regular account for Ghost (which you could make
          
with
      
adduser or useradd or handcoding the passwd file) and added it to a
          
group
  
(in the groups file) that I called "admin". In smb.conf, I added a
          
line
  
that
      
went like this:
domain admin group = @admin

So that worked like a charm.
Hope that helps,
Dan

Hello Dan,

Thanks for yor reply !
But what exactly do you mean with "making a regular administrator
account for Ghost"?
Is it an entry in /etc/passwd or smbpasswd for "administrator"?
Could you give more specific details?

Kind regards,

Werner Maes
