[Samba] Help with ADS authentication and Samba

[Brian O'Mahony]

Turns out something else has gone wrong on me.

The system that previously worked without a login box, now requires it. I didn't notice this as my machine obviously is cahed. If I put my credentials in (DOMAIN\user and password), it logs in. Still need to fix that

The system that has the same confirguration, pops the login box, but I cannot log in using the same credentials.

This is starting to boggle me. I don't know why all of a sudden, the first machine is throwing up a login box, and secondly why the second one wont authenticate.

When I dig the RHEL server, it actually returns the DC:

160.16.172.in-addr.arpa. 3600   IN      SOA     animal.XXX.com. hostmaster.XXX.com. 77337 900 600 86400 3600

The system that is working returns its correct name (ccdubrep.XXX.com)

I added the server to the windows DNS table, and the dig now shows correctly.

However it is still popping up a login box.

Not the same problem I have then. Shame. I can force the domain and it works.

Apologies, I meant dig -x rhel5u5's IP, not that of the DC. dig should return the FQDN, not just rhel5u5.
