Samba 3

Oviwan — Mon, 11 Dec 2006 11:23:31 GMT

Hi folk

I have a problem with samba 3.0.22 on a B.11.23 or the network config:

i configured samba with security = domain and i tried to create a computer account on the pdc using: net rpc join -U username

Unable to find a suitable server.

then the traceroute on the server returns:

Warning: Multiple interfaces found; using 192.168.100.212 @ lan2

it should take lan0, has samba the same behaviour as traceroute, i read that traceroute takes the first interface.

how can i set lan0 to the default? or what could be the problem?

Thanks

Regards

Shalom,

The domain server set in smb.conf is wrong. That is why the net join fails.

If you were pointed to the right server you would probably not get the error message.

Is the domain server on lan0 or lan2?

Samba will work with either and its not necessary to change the primary interface in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf to accommodate Samba.

Thanks,

which parameter is exactly to set for the domain server? i set the pdc to "wins server" and also "password server"... and it is the right pdc.

pdc is on lan0

Is your Windows network running ADS?

If so, check out my thread here:

It explains how to get CIF's to work in an ADS environment.

ty, yes it's running ADS, but the main problem is the resolve of the pdc, i thing it would also not run with ads...

any other ideas?

on smb.conf

This line
workgroup= domain_name

defines domain name.

interfaces = lan0
defines ethernet interface lan0 as a dedicated listening device

It works now.

workgroup was xyz.ab instead of xyz and the interfaces parameter was not set...

Thanks a lot
