Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: samba
We have a windows 2003 server running active directory. Trying to join
an up-to-date Ubuntu Hardy server to the domain would not work if we
passed "-S staff.gcd.ie" but would work if we passed "-S CENTRALADMIN"
(the old NT4 DOMAIN name) and if we dropped the -S entirely. It should
surely work in the first case?
So, this fails (I've obscured the domain admin username):
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo net ads join -S STAFF.GCD.IE -U OURADMIN
OURADMIN's password:
Failed to join domain: Duplicate name on network
but this works:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo net ads join -S CENTRALADMIN -U OURADMIN
OURADMIN's password:
Using short domain name -- CENTRALADMIN
Joined 'CRAIC' to realm 'STAFF.GCD.IE'
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo net ads leave -S CENTRALADMIN -U OURADMIN
OURADMIN's password:
Deleted account for 'CRAIC' in realm 'STAFF.GCD.IE'
and this works:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo net ads join -U OURADMIN
OURADMIN's password:
Using short domain name -- CENTRALADMIN
Joined 'CRAIC' to realm 'STAFF.GCD.IE'
** Affects: samba (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New

using "net ads join" with -S breaks if given the long domain name
