[Samba] set up for Active Directory

[McGranahan, Jamen]

OK, I've installed the MIT version of KRB5 & samba appears to have
installed correctly. However, it appears that I am not able to join my
domain.

# ./net ads join -U mcgranj at DS.VANDERBILT.EDU
[2009/04/14 11:36:50,  0] param/loadparm.c:lp_set_enum_parm(7097)

[2009/04/14 11:36:50,  0] param/loadparm.c:lp_do_parameter(7174)
  Ignoring unknown parameter "realm"

So I tried the -d3 version of ./net and got this:

# ./net ads -d3 join -U mcgranj at VANDERBILT.EDU

I'm not sure where to check now. Please advise. Thank you!

Did the howto that was previously posted not help?

My advice is to get the latest OpenLDAP and MIT krb5
libs and install those.  Then rebuild Samba.  Life is
to short to spend it trying to get code compiling :-)
But it's your call.
