Hi,
I have this (Linux) Samba file server, that indeed is a client of a Windows 2000 Server PDC, using Active Directory.
I am the Samba machine admin, but not the Windows one.
I have to join the Samba machine to the PDC on the 2000 server.
I ask the Windows 2000 server admin to come to my Samba machine and insert his login and password to join my machine, but i always get the same error (after my signature, along with other relevant data).
I tried:
# net ads join -Uzbr@dte.ua.pt
What could be causing the error ?
Another question.: In the moment of joining the Samba machine to the PDC on the Windows 2000 Server, the Samba daemons must be up or down (i've read contraditory things about this issue) ?
Any help would be apreciated.
Warm Regards, Mário Gamito ------------ [root@tux moreira]# # net ads join -Uzbr@dte.ua.pt foobar@foobar.pt's password: [2005/04/06 09:24:16, 0] ads_connect: Cannot find KDC for requested realm [root@tux moreira]#
- DTE is the domain name in question. - My Samba server FQDN is tux.dte.ua.pt - My Samba server Netbios name is SRV-TUX-DTE - Windows 2000 server FQDN is srv-dte.dte.ua.pt - Windows 2000 server Netbios name is SRV-DTE - Command i'm using to join the Samba server to w2000 AD PDC: # net ads join -Uzbr@dte.ua.pt (zbr@dte.ua.pt has rights on w2000 to join machines to the domain).
