How to join windows xp in samba domain
Hi
I am running Redhat Linux 9 and samba as a PDC. I have joined windows 2000 in domain successfully but I could not be able to join windows xp professional. When I join xp in domain it gives error "The specified user does not exist" my computer name is xp and i have added the data base as follows: useradd -d /dev/null -s /bin/false xp$ passwd -l xp$ smbpasswd -a -m xp and for root account smbpasswd -a root What could be the problem? Can anybody suggest the solution. Thanks in advance. |
1. You do not need to have enter passwords for machine accounts.
2. Which XP version & service pack are you using ??? 3. When you join domain, you have to enter username/pass for your linux box root account. Are you following the same practice ?
