Samba: Cannot access admin shares on other workstations

[TrifeLife]

I have a home.local domain being hosted on a redhat 9 server with latest samba release. Two Windows XP boxes are connected and can login properly and everything seems to be working well except for a small problem. Samba is not using romaing profiles.

My computers are:

lxserv 192.168.0.3 (redhat 9 running: bind,named,samba)

carmcomp 192.168.0.98 (windows xp sp1)
login: carm

chriscomp 192.168.0.100 (window xp sp1)
login: Christine
obtaining ip from dhcp and using redhat as dns server


I joined all the computers to the domain using the root account. I use carmcomp as my workstation and I'd like to be able to connect to admin shares on chriscomp:

eg : \\chriscomp\c$

When I try to connect I'm asked for a username and password because I'm only logged in as a domain user. I try using the root account but it doesn't work.

What can I do to fix this problem? Is this a limitation of samba?

Fixed the problem!

I didn't know you had to include this line in the global section:

domain admin group = root

I was under the impression root was by default given admin priv.
