authentification problem on Samba3

[Oleg Mercader-Kashin]

Hmm.. in other words I have to
1. reset machine name in a MS DOMAIN;
2. put in a smb.conf only the following (?):

[global]
workgroup = SC1
netbios name = SGIIC3
security = DOMAIN
encrypt passwords = Yes
update encrypted = Yes

3. restart samba
4. net rcp join

??

[Geoff Wild]

encrypt passwords = Yes is the default

If you really want update encrypted = Yes, then in order for this parameter to work correctly the encrypt passwords parameter must be set to no .

You do not want that....

Do I have to remove a private/secrets.tdb before restart?

[Zinky]

I think there should be no need. Or if you bliew it away .. a new one will simply be created..

Sorry but doesn't work.
./net rpc oldjoin was OK but like before I see the smba server but if I want connect to I get the popup window asks me user/pw, etc. Seems like samba can't identify:

Kongratz on your join!

Your current problem appears to be kernel related.... what's your kernel param for maximum number of open files set at? You may need to increase that...

[Oleg Mercader-Kashin]

Well, including I try to register (after all:-() like (with the help from the client's MS admin) but:

./net rpc join
Password:
Could not connect to server SRVSC1
The account was locked out.

:-(

[Zinky]

Once you've joined the domain.. that's it.. you need not net join once more or your machine account will be locked out! You will now need to have your machine account refreshed and do a net old join once more since you're locked out.

net rpc testjoin to validate your joined to the domain.

[Oleg Mercader-Kashin]

In a sysconfigtab I don't see any about it. How can I know a max file?

[Oleg Mercader-Kashin]

# ./net rpc testjoin
Join to 'SC1' is OK
