[Samba] RHEL3 3.0.9 Release & Active Directory Membership

[Ben Vaughan]

Hello Christian,

Here at Iowa State, we have experienced exactly this behavior, although
we haven't noticed any of my samba servers loosing their domain
membership.  It appears that samba is still functioning via the rpc
methods.

We compiled samba.org's srpms and haven't had any problems.

I can't verify this right now, but I recall having this same problem
with RH's 3.0.7 package.  I'm still digging to see if that was indeed
the case.

We are running Samba with an AD in native 2000 mode.  We are beginning
the transition to AD 2003.  We have about 3 dozen or so samba servers in
our domain.

Let me know if you need any more help or testing or whatever.

Thanks,

Ben Vaughan

Some preliminary testing indicates that there may be problems in the 
newly released Red Hat 3.0.9 packages (not samba.org's) in regard to 
joining an AD as a full member (w/kerberos).  This may also affect 
maintaining current membership in such an environment.  If anyone has 
already upgraded and is experiencing the same or different behavior 
please let me know.  Specifically we are seeing "no support for 
encryption type" messages when using a "net ads join" and a return code 
of -1.
