[Samba] samba

[Mitchell, Andy]

Not sure I understand your question. Samba won't have anything to do with
logins to the Unix box. How you do authentication for login to a Unix box is
way off topic for this list (perhaps that's not really what you are asking?)

In truth, my comments were based on *very* recent experience (last week)
testing samba in an HP-UX/Solaris and Win2k/WINNT domain setup. (Some big
differences in auth and access). I just learned this stuff myself. I'm good
with Unix sysadmin. I'm an idiot with Windows sysadmin.

Good luck!
Andy

usernames in NT.

Lawrence - No, you did not specify that the machine account had been created
in your email. I believe Den is correct. This error is the result of a
username/password mismatch on the NT PDC you are talking to (PRIMARYDC). So,
you could try a few different things:

1. Smbpasswd -j DYLNET -r PRIMARYDC -U <user>
	Supply a <user> that is valid in the domain and supply the password
when prompted

2. create a machine account in the domain and just run the 'smbpasswd -j
DYLNET -r PRIMARYDC' command without a user or password specified.

3. Failing either of those, use tcpdump (on your Linux box) or Ethereal to
watch the traffic between your client and the PDC.

Hope that helps.
Andy

Den,
In my mail I said I've already created the domain name in the NT.
Also I created root as an account in NT and I used
Smbpasswd -j DYLNET -r PRIMARYDC -U root%password
But the error still appear.

Lawrence:

This may be a stupid question but did you already create a machine account
on the Windows domain?  If I remember right that's what this error looks
like but I could be wrong.

I tried to join my samba to wins NT so that win NT will be the
authenticating server and I can log into linux with the wins NT accounts.
But I cannot, though I tried this command
 
Smbpasswd -j DYLNET -r PRIMARYDC
 And it gave me the following error
 cli_net_auth2:Error NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED  cli_nt_Setup_creds:auth2
challenge failed
 modify_trust_password: unable to setup the PDC credentials to machine
PRIMARYDC  Error was : NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED  2003/02/24 07:25:24
:change_trust_account_password:Failed to change password  unable to join
domain DYLNET
 
Pls I need help
