Samba PDC - XP client, Access is denied


I am running Samba 2.2.7 on Linux 9. I have configured Samba to be a PDC and trying to connect a Windows XP Pro client to the domain.

I enter the domain name in throught the XP System Properties/Computer Name Changes screen and click OK.

I then enter my the name and password of and account with permission to join the domain. I keep getting an error box stating "The following error occured attempting to join the domain "TESTGROUP": Access denied"

I am so close to getting this to work but no cigar.
I have followed many documents and I can't find any errors on the client or server side but I still cannot get the two to link together.

ANYBODY HAVE ANY IDEAS......

Here are the entries for the passwd file:
tms:x:506:100::/home/tms:/bin/bash
ip-152$:*:508:201:Trust Account:/home/ip-152$:/sbin/nologin
ig72$:x:511:511:Trust Account:/nonexistent:/bin/false

Here are some entries for in the smbpasswd file:
tms:506:24A97CBE0KLPD896B25KL3B83GA6627C7:731B61AFF70C5812B8C5C5D637A2641E:[U]:LCT-3F70521F:

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:[DU ]:LCT-4F707ADF:Trust Account

ig72$:511:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:XXXXXXXXX

Welcome to LQ.

Try adding root as a samba user and use root to join the computer to the domain.

I added root as a samba user and tried to log into the domain using root with the same results, "access denied".

smbpasswd entry for root:
root:0:B8A08C86E3EDE97EAAD3B435B51404EE:CD248A8F854DE6B223A81F20A2AF5242:[U ]:LCT-3F705234:root


I can ping the Samba server from the client and even map a share & printer to the Samba server. I just cant get it to accept any domain clients.

It is driving me nuts. The Samba software was pre-installed before I got to it. I have run testparm, "smbclient -U% -L localhost" and dont have any errors. However, I am missing something. I have been an Oracle DBA for many years and this is the first time I have gotten in on the network/OS side of things. My experience with networking/OS concepts is somewhat limited right now.

I am using TESTGROUP as the name of the domain. I have included the below mentioned info. I talked with another dude here in the office and he might think it has something to do with the "firewall". I dont know much about that but it seems that if am not getting past the firewall, I would not be able to map to a share or printer on the Samba server. The guy that administrates the firewall will be in tomorrow to see if that is the problem.

[root@ig72 root]# smbclient -U% -L localhost

added interface ip=214.125.113.149 bcast=214.125.113.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Domain=[TESTGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.7a]

Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Samba PDC running 2.2.7a)
ADMIN$ Disk IPC Service (Samba PDC running 2.2.7a)
Laser3_IG72 Printer

Server Comment
--------- -------
IG72 Samba PDC running 2.2.7a

Workgroup Master
--------- -------
CWI IP-247
HEIMNET BKH2
MSHOME IP-154
SCANDOCS IMAGINE
TESTGROUP IG72
WORKGROUP IP-246-DUAL

Well I finally figured this one out.

I set my log level = 3 and found that I was getting some password errors such as:

rpc_server/srv_netlog_nt.c:get_md4pw(188) get_md4pw: Workstation

Anyway, after doing some searching, I set
"unix password synch = no" and bounce the Samba services.

I was then able to join the domain without any problems. Once I set my client to the domain, I went back and reset the "unix password synch = yes" and had no further problems.

Thanks for your help.
