Hi,

I have successfully joined my Linux box(ubuntu feisty) to Active Directory
using Samba.
Now i have installed a new Linux distro(ubuntu gutsy) and want to join it to
AD.

The problem is that it is asking for some kind-of-password when i do "net
ads testjoin".

This implies that when joining a domain, some kind of mutual identity must
have been stored
 by samba. right?

The questions is how do i make the new distro join the domain using old
samba data/settings?
(basically is their some files which store the trust relationship which i
need to copy over to new distro?)


I hope i am clear.

Regards,
Jimmy
