Hi,

Samba common files used by both the server and the client

On Debian Lenny and i am sharing directories to Windows Users successfully.

I configured it as a PDC with the following configuration.



[global]
       workgroup = HIFXNX
       netbios name = HIFXNXDC
       server string = HIFXNX Domain Controller, PHP Development

       pam password change = Yes

       passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n

       os level = 33
       preferred master = Auto
       domain master = Yes
       dns proxy = No
       panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d

[homes]
       comment = Home Directories
       valid users = %S
       create mask = 0700
       directory mask = 0700
       browseable = No

[netlogon]
       comment = Network Logon Service
       path = /home/samba/netlogon
       guest ok = Yes
       share modes = No


I can get the domain & domain controller resolved using DNS from the
Windows XP machine.

                                           172.17.1.0

But when I try to join the domain from the Windows XP machine.
I get the error

"A Domain Controller for the domain hifxnx.local could not be contacted"

and the debug log file dcdiag.txt contains these details.

The following error occurred when DNS was queried for the service
location (SRV) resource record used to locate a domain controller for
domain hifxnx.local:

The error was: "DNS name does not exist."
(error code 0x0000232B RCODE_NAME_ERROR)

The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.hifxnx.local

Common causes of this error include the following:

- The DNS SRV record is not registered in DNS.

- One or more of the following zones do not include delegation to its
child zone:

hifxnx.local
local
. (the root zone)

It will be great if some one can point out the problem to me :-)

Thanks
