yup - I can't tell the difference in browse lists - as long as the Win2k
system is PDC (actually, with 'active directory' there isn't really a
designation like PDC/BDC)...
again the info that I had in earlier message seems to be the trick...
I have a 'machine account' for the netbios name of the samba computer on the
domain controller.
I have a 'machine account' for the netbios name of the domain contoller as
samba user.
and I have samba set up to verify users against the domain controller.
perfect setup to leave the security aspects in the hands of Microsoft so I
really can't monitor violations. It does however keep the number of
complaints down from the clients since there's little to document security
violations.
the biggest problem that I have with win2k playing nicely is that MS DNS is
either poorly behaved or not easily enough for dummies like me to
understand. If I make the MS DNS the primary and the DNS on linux a slave
(and accept updates from the Windows master), then it all behaves reasonably
well but that's not the way I feel most comfortable setting it up. So for
time being, I tolerate stupid syslog errors where some updates from the
Win2k computer are rejected on the linux box and the win2k even log moans
about dynamic updates. It's not possible to use win2k active directory
without DNS (at least as far as I can tell).
