Trying to add "MYDOMAIN/Domain Users" to the "LOCALMACHINE/Power
Users" group results in the following error:
Information returned from the object picker for object "Domain Users"
was incomplete. The object will not be processed
A similar problem happens with the default "Domain Admins" group (which is
by default added to "LOCALMACHINE/Administrators") is that logging in as
root, does NOT give administrative privileges. For this, the workaround is
to add "MYDOMAIN/root" to the "LOCALMACHINE/Administrators"
group. Unfortunately, this doesn't work for "Domain Users" because it
doesn't scale (can't add 100 users to every machine!!!!!). Windows 2000
machine's group membership in a similar manner works 100% properly.
Is this an XP issue or a Samba issue??? Does anyone know of any workarounds?
Machine info:
RedHat 8.0
Samba 2.2.7
x86 RAID server.
XP professional machines have the registry hacked (properly?) to
authenticate through the samba PDC
requiresignorseal = 0
signsecurechannel = 0
