I succesfully managed to get trough the great samba as PDC on ubuntu tutorial - great work! Only i have a problem adding my windows xp pro machine. When i want to join the domain, i have to enter login and username.. I login with my Administrator account to add the machine. Only i get the message : Access Denied ... the password for Administrator equals the one for root, isn't ? Anyone?
Got a little further now step 1 --- I believe it has something to do with rights ... because when i enter a wrong password it says : wrong username or password step 2 --- commented the line Code: invalid users = root ----- now currently in the logfile i find: Code: [2006/03/06 15:12:55, 3] rpc_server/srv_samr_nt.c:_samr_create_user(2330) _samr_create_user: winbind_create_user(clientname$) failed any ideas?
When you want to join a domain with winXP, you will have to enter the user username (not root) in the first step of the whizard and then for the second step you will have to use the Administrator login.
Thanks for your reply, i first didn't used the wizard, now it did... but it says: Cannot find user when i enter the Administrator + password in the second step...
What is the content of /etc/samba/smbusers? Please post the out put of the command: smbclient -L localhost -U% when you are logged in as root user (not sudo!).
in my /etc/samba/smbusers is only 1 line: Code: root = Administrator output of smbclient Code: root@adam:~# smbclient -L localhost -U% added interface ip=172.16.*.* bcast=172.16.127.255 nmask=255.255.128.0 Client started (version 3.0.14a-Ubuntu). resolve_wins: Attempting wins lookup for name localhost<0x20> name_resolve_bcast: Attempting broadcast lookup for name localhost<0x20> resolve_hosts: Attempting host lookup for name localhost<0x20> Connecting to 127.0.0.1 at port 445 Domain=[DOMAIN] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.14a-Ubuntu] dos_clean_name [] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- netlogon Disk Network Logon Service print$ Disk Printer Drivers IPC$ IPC IPC Service (adam server (Samba, Ubuntu)) ADMIN$ IPC IPC Service (adam server (Samba, Ubuntu)) Connecting to 127.0.0.1 at port 139 Domain=[DOMAIN] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.14a-Ubuntu] dos_clean_name [] Server Comment --------- ------- ADAM adam server (Samba, Ubuntu) Workgroup Master --------- ------- DOMAIN ADAM any ideas?
Did you get any errors in your samab logfiles in /var/log/samba ? Are you sure you executed this command during setup? smbpasswd -a root
yeah i'm sure i enterend that command during setup, just did it again... same error. In the logfile of the client (log.clientname) i see the following... please let me know if you need to see more of the logfiles Code: [2006/03/07 22:46:31, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:pop_sec_ctx(386) pop_sec_ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 0 [2006/03/07 22:46:31, 3] rpc_server/srv_samr_nt.c:_samr_create_user(2330) _samr_create_user: winbind_create_user(clientname$) failed
solved!! i copied my smb.conf to smb.old.conf ... and copied the smb.conf from the tutorial... STUPID OF ME!! there should be a contradiction in the both.. for the fans.. i got both versions..
I had similar issues, here is what I found out The following line (uncommented) did give me the "Access denied" message, when I tried to join a new machine to the network and used root or Administrator to log on. Code: ; invalid users = root This line missing from my configuration did prevent me from using the "Administrator" alias for root. Code: username map = /etc/samba/smbusers Learned some more K<o>
