I have a Samba PDC running on RHEL3U4 with the following smb.conf:
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2005/06/01 15:50:07
# Global parameters

I want to join my Windows2003 machine to TESTDOMAIN. On the Windows
machine, following the instructions in Appendix A of the Samba Guide:
1. On the System Properties "Computer Name" tab, I select Change.
2. I enter TESTDOMAIN in the field below the Domain radio button and hit
OK.
3. I enter "root" and its password in the Computer Name Changes dialogue
and hit OK.
The result is I get the message "Logon failure: unknown user name or
bad password."
I have set the root password with smbpasswd on the PDC machine. I have
many users in the ldap backend but root is in passwd. Have I forgotten
something?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Don
