Linux domain logon

[psintern]

I finally got all of the compuers in my office connected to the Linus domain I just built. I'm using it as the PDC. After getting all the computers connected to it, I restarted them, and when the logon screen came up, it denied access for any of my users to logon. any suggestions or hints?

This is actually a bug for the Samba Forum, however did you create a smbuser for each user that needs to logon to the domain. There are 2 sets of users, linux system users and samba users.

For each user on the linux system that needs to login, make sure you add the user using smbpasswd.

I setup a Redhat 9 server that runs as a Samba 2.2.7a PDC. Well, it is supposed to run as a PDC but when I try to get my WinXP Pro machine to join the Binkhorst DOMAIN, it returns an error message the domain cannot be found.
My smb.conf is set like this:

[global]
	; use the name of your Samba server
	; and your own Workgroup
	netbios name = Binkhorst-000-PDC
	workgroup = Binkhorst
	encrypt passwords = yes
	
	domain master = yes
	local master = yes
	preferred master = yes
	os level = 65
	
	security = user
	domain logons = yes
	
	; logon path tells Samba where to put Windows NT/2000/XP roaming profiles
	logon path = \\%L\profiles\%u\%m
	logon script = logon.bat
	
	logon drive = H:
	
	; logon home is used to specify home directory and
	; Windows 95/98/Me roaming profile location
	logon home = \\%L\%u\.win_profile\%m
	
	time server = yes
	
	; use the names of all users in the Windows NT/2000/XP
	; Administrators group who log on to the domain
	domain admin group = root dennis
	
	; the below works on Red Hat Linux - other OSs might need a different command
	add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 100 -s /bin/false -M %u

[netlogon]
	path = /usr/local/samba/lib/netlogon
	writable = no
	browsable = no
	
[profiles]
	; you might wish to use a different directory for your
	; Windows NT/2000/XP roaming profiles
	path = /home/samba-ntusers
	browsable = no
	writable = yes
	create mask = 0600
	directory mask = 0700
	
[homes]
	read only = no
	browsable = no
	quest ok = no
	map archive = yes

When searching for machines in the BINKHORST workgroup I can see the Samba machine (Binkhorst-000-p), and I can access the shares when logging in as a user that's in the smbpasswd file.

So, I created a user in the smbpasswd-file that is called Binkhorst-001-d$ after my WinXP machine's NETBIOS name and I edited the registry at the 'requiresignorseal' key.

What to do?
