[plug] Samba domain issues

[Mark Nold]

Paul,

Nice summary :) Is it mandatory that you run smbpasswd (cant remember if
this is exact name) for all new user accounts? I think that caught me out
even though they sync ever since.


>The first things you must do on your samba server is :
>1 Server Name (obviously)
>2 User account and mapping of the users name (if different in win/linux)
>3 Machine account (useradd -d /dev/null -s /bin/false machinename$)
>4 Encrypted passwds must be turned on in smb.conf
>5 Domain logons = yes
>These must be setup properly or Samba won't answer as a Domain
>Controller.
