I and running samba 2 on redhat 9 and my windows (client machine is 2000 professional).
The windows 2000 machine is also my work machine (laptop) and has domains allready registered, even at home I "log" on to my work domain and use the cached profile. This works well for unplugging my computer from work, bringing it home and plugging into my local network.
Problem:
If I try to access my home samba server, I get
"There are currently no logon servers to service the logon request".
As a work around, I logged on to the local machine as another user, added that to the samba config, password etc and I was able to access the shares, printers etc.
What I want to do is be able to use my cached profile on the laptop and still be able to access the share on my linux server.
