I have followed the how to on this website and set up my ubuntu server as a pdc perfectly.. i was well impressed but i have a little problem I cant install programs or change the system time on the windows XP machine even when i log in as root or administrator Can any of you help me
This is a normal security restriction in windows. Users that are part of a Domain controller can not do this anymore. To install software, login to your XP workstation as administrator and select to authenticate locally and not agains the domain controller. Install the software, logout and then login again with your domaincontroller user and select to authenticate against the domain controller.
thanks alot Yeah that would work But im use to windows based networks There you can give the network administrator the provalage of installing programs in group policy so here is another question is group policy possible in a linux envorment i have reaserched on the web and so far it seems imposiible Tommo ********** Slowly but shorley converting to linux
