When using .local domain name, join will fail because domain controller cannot be found trough normal DNS query procedure. Then, DC cannot be found, right? 2. DNS update fail of course causes join procedure fail, because update dns is part of the join process. But, the join process didn't remove the machine account from DC when dns update fails. The error message says it fails, but it doesn't completely fail, machine account is created, DNS entry for the member is not updated, this is the exact description, I think. 3. I don't find a "net ads updates dns" command, either from manual pages or from source code of 3.0.28......... which version of samba do you use? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I think so, but the bug is somehow sly infact if you use the net ads join commmand with the debug option samba complain about LDAP server.... 2. Yes this is what happens 3. I said "net ads updates" not for a real command but an explaination of what happens.

1. I think so, but the bug is somehow sly infact if you use the net ads join commmand with the debug option samba complain about LDAP server....

Please invoke net ads join with option -d999 and then post the output to bugzilla.

2. Yes this is what happens

It is designed as it is.... Maybe error message should be improved.

3. I said "net ads updates" not for a real command but an explaination of what happens. (I think the command is something like: net ads dns register)

So stupid that I misunderstand it. :-) This is a bug. 127.0.0.x must never be registered in DC. I'll fix it.

Thank you

I think the second part of the issue was already fixed by 3.0.28. If dns update is not permitted on domain Controller, join process succeeded, but with warning that "DNS update failed". I think this is good enough. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
