Hello there am trying to make a DNS server using SAMBA. I found this configuration in a spanish forun and tried it but i cant log into de domain from windows. Any idea what can io have wrong?
Create machine acct in the machnies group and no asign shell
# /usr/sbin/useradd -g machines -d /dev/null -c "machine nickname" -s /bin/false machine_name$
Block the acct to avoid shell access
# passwd -l machine_name$
Create samba acct, option -m indicates that is a machine acct
#smbpasswd -a -m machine_name
We also havve to create a linux acct and a samba acct for each user we add to the domain
# useradd userid
# passwd -l userid
# smbpasswd -a userid
Enter Password: <pw>
This is may global settins in my smb.conf
