Re: [webmin-l] Samba - Connecting to a Windows 2003 Server and AD

I went back and re-read your original note.  Here are some random
suggestions, FWIW:

I believe the correct JOIN statement for a 2003 AD is

net ads join...



You will also want to make sure your smb.conf has these:

        client signing =3D mandatory
        workgroup =3D <Your AD Domain without the .com>
        security =3D ADS
        client use spnego =3D yes
        encrypt passwords =3D true
        realm =3D <Your AD Domain with the .com>
        password server =3D <Your AD PDC, e.g. MyPDC>


I had to dumb down the default /etc/krb5.conf, note the ones in all
caps:

[libdefaults]
        default_realm =3D YOURDOMAIN.COM

[realms]
        YOURDOMAIN.COM =3D {
                kdc =3D MyPDC.yourdomain.com
        }

[domain_realms]
        .mypdc.yourdomain.com =3D YOURDOMAIN.COM


Dunno if you were also trying to get winbind working, if so, the
official samba docs are pretty good:

Hope something here helps...

Thanks again but still can't get it right. Like I said, I can see the
server in the AD but I can't communicate with it. It is also causing IP
conflicts because windows is not registering the static IP's. I wonder
if there is a place to go to pay by incident to get this done once and
for all.
