I'm having problems configuring Samba in order to have w2000Pro being able
to log into the PDC that I have configured on a Centos4 Linux using samba
3.0.10-1.4E.
On a Windows98 client. It logs in OK and executes the login script also.
Here's the smb.conf:
[global]
workgroup = PALMARINC
server string = Samba Server
log level = 3
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 300
logon script = %U.bat
domain logons = Yes
os level = 34
preferred master = Yes
domain master = Yes
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
read only = No
browseable = No
[netlogon]
comment = The domain logon service
path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon
browseable = No
[public]
path = /public
valid users = +users
read list = +users
write list = +users
read only = No
I have added the trust account for the w2k client: I created the unix
account and locked the passwd as documented in the samba.org doc. I used the
smbpasswd -a -m client_pc_name.
I also checked the security parameters in the security options of the local
policies and I put "Digitally sign client" and "secure channel" to disabled
I'm still getting the error "the following error occured attempting to join
the domain "PALMARINC" "logon failure: unknown username or bad password"
On the other hand, I'm able to connect to a share with the same login and
password.
Thanks in advance.
