Title: Never had trouble with my samba PDC since today !!
Post by: Brossin Pierrick on December 16, 2001, 01:15:07 PM

Hey ppl,

I had trouble with my ES 4.1.2 server lately (it was already my pdc)
So I decided to upgrade to SME v.5 (actually, I reinstalled everything)
The domain was "march-networks" but I could log on with windows xp on the domain "brossin".
"brossin" was the domain I choosed on ES 4.1.2... that is strange I could log on..

Then My WinXP HD crashed... I reinstalled WinXP on another HD and tried to log on my PDC..
"brossin" wasnt working so I went on the manager and changed "march-networks" to "brossin".
And now, WinXP asks me the username/password and then give me the error message : "The remote procedure call failed."

Any idea of what is the trouble ?

Regards

ps: I followed the instructions found on myezserver to log a WinXP machine on a PDC and tried to remove my account on Samba as said on this website.

I created a user called nitrox and log on my pdc with winxp
Shut down my computer and guess what... the directory profile on the server has not been created...

Think you have to use the winprofiles rpm to store NT profiles on the e-smith box??
