--=-l7FRuf52kY8XIlHVW4Ve Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi, Thanks for the reply. I should mention that I've made some progress with my efforts to set up a samba PDC for my Win2K clients. First of all I am now able to successfully complete all tests in the recommended "DIAGNOSTICS.TXT" at http://hr.uoregon.edu/davidrl/DIAGNOSIS.txt, except:- test 8: On the PC type the command "net view \\BIGSERVER" Specifically, I am only able to complete this test by using the IP Addr of the samba server in place of its name. Likewise for test 9 that follows. Recapping, I *am* able to serve share dirs to *NIX clients as well as the Win2K boxes, with the caveat that for the Windows boxes, I have to use the IP Addr of the samba server. This is not an issue for other (*NIX) client hosts. Needless to say, I am not as yet able to have the Win2K boxes join the domain as described in Chapter 9. (How to Configure Samba 2.2 as a Primary Domain Controller - 9.4.3. Joining the Client to the Domain.4.3. Joining the Client to the Domain). I still get the MS error when I click "OK" after entering the domain as defined in smb.conf. Hope this presents somewhat a clearer description of the current status here. Do get back to if you would require more information in assisting me in resolving this. Thanks On Sat, 2002-10-26 at 22:26, D.
