Last time I checked, samba-tng was dead about a year ago. All of the functionality of that fork has been implemented and more in the regular samba. The fork was because the regular samba team didn't want to rush into the "PDC" thing as fast as the TNG group did. What you are probably facing is the fact that Samba is a fully compliant NT4.0 PDC not a fully compliant Win2K PDC. So, much like the old password hack, you should need to make a small registry modification. This is from some of my notes from when I had to deal with it (thankfully only once. This was in something I found in Google, so you may find additional info on how to "fix" XP. Try setting this key... HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\netlogon\parameters "RequireSignOrSeal"=dword:00000000 It disables the "signing and sealing" of netlogon packets which is in Win2K. Samba doesn't yet have this ability. Hope that helps. -- Brian Ashe CTO Dee-Web Software Services, LLC.
