Hi, I've been trying to get an Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04 desktop to connect to an SME domain for about 5 days now and am about to tear hair out!
I have tried the howto at
http://tech.canterburyschool.org/tech/UbuntuWorkstations which is very well written and comprehensive. Unforetunately it hasn't worked in my situation. I have tried all the tricks from the forums including creating and activating the computer account on the SME server but all to no avail.
So far, at different times, I have had
the desktop join the domain but fail to login (Using Happy Gnome with name list) - just get local machine users listed and get incorrect username or password trying to get in via domain OR local user accounts
fail on joining domain
fail trying to get wbinfo -u
succeed getting domain users - wbinfo -u - but still fail to login when reboot
aaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!
Can anyone PLEASE help with some instructions/tips/tricks/traps for getting Feisty to connect to an SME domain.
Thanks heaps in anticipation
