I think you might be on to something there. I am trying the likewise- open package to authenticate my Ubuntu with our AD domain. (It doesn't work very well, but I don't have time to remove it right now.)
The name server is a bog standard Windows SBS 2003 R2. I don't think it's providing WINS (although I could be wrong there, I'm not particularly up on WINS). We're definitely not using IPv6 though. Some files that might be of interest: arichard...@vostro-1:~$ cat /etc/resolv.conf domain . search . nameserver 10.22.5.2 arichard...@vostro-1:~$ cat /etc/nsswitch.conf passwd: files winbind lwidentity shadow: files group: files winbind lwidentity hosts: files wins dns networks: files protocols: db files services: db files ethers: db files rpc: db files netgroup: nis Hmm, that nsswitch.conf file doesn't look right... might explain why lwo gives me double password prompts. (In my defence, lwo itself sets up the file.) -- [intrepid] firefox crashes frequently on Intrepid with SIGABRT https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282287 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
