I cannot connect to my Linux box from my Windows 2000 machine via Samba.
The log file says:
[2002/08/12 22:00:46, 0] smbd/password.c:domain_client_validate(1563) domain_client_validate: could not fetch trust account password for domain ELMIT
Did you read this file first? file:///usr/share/samba/swat/help/DOMAIN_MEMBER.html With older versions of Samba, you had to add the workstation via NT Server Manager first, then use smbpasswd to join the domain from the Samba side. If the documentation doesn't help, maybe the relevant parts of my configuration will be useful: [global] workgroup = <your domain name here> netbios name = <your samba server name here> security = DOMAIN encrypt passwords = Yes password server = <your primary domain controller here> name resolve order = wins lmhosts bcast host preferred master = False domain master = False wins server = <IP address of PDC here> When all else fails, I recommend setting up swat.
