Then I know that you could get samba to authenticate against ldap, so then I thought I give that a go. If i just makes some shares and give users access everything works as expected seen from the Windows client side, I'been struggeling for a long time to make a windows w2k pro to join the samba domain, then I just thought I would try to make a XP client join the domain, and I was so supprised when it get joined. I think what made the trick was configure bind to know about the samba PDC, then I really dont understand why I cant join a W2k client to the domain. I've googled around for hours tried all kind of configuration in samba. Still no luck. I tried enabling wins on samba, and the w2k client can access samba with the netbios name. The reason i want to get that working is coz of centralized policys and logon scripts. And of course it need to be stable :-) Tronn -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
