|
| [global]
|    workgroup = COMPANY.COM
|    security = server
|    log level = "4 auth:6"
|    password server = SERVER1 SERVER2
|    wins server = 10.0.0.29
|    os level = 0
|    domain / preferred / local master = no
|    dns proxy = no
...

| It appears before ads_dc_name () was being
| alled before because the  condition strchr_m(domain, '.')
| was passing  due to the domain being  'COMPANY.COM' in
| the conf.

This is why the check was considered to be bogus.
having a '.' in a netbios name always ends in tears.
Set workgroup to be the short version of the AD
realm name.  Then the name should resolve via WINS.

| Now it fails because it it is checking either ADS
| security mode or  realm. However, realm is set to NULL
| from the enumerate_domain_trusts call.
|
| So that's where I am at. I don't have the priviledges at
| the company to  add this server to the domain, which is
| why security mode is server. I'd  appreciate any help
| or pointers. Thanks a lot,
