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.
