Re: [PLUG] Problems using multiple Samba servers in a Win2003 AD domain


I had previously working samba configuration which don't work anymore, I
believe that the current version of samba is broken, or at least the ubuntu
packages are. I currently have Linux machines able to mount windows shares,
but windows machines cannot mount windows shares. Since I have a couple of
times gotten to a point where Linux shares were available through net use,
but could not be accessed through the windows gui, I believe that something
microsoft did is responsible. 

I believe that the best Linux/Windows integration is in the commercial
version of SUSE, I haven't tried openSuse recently so I can't tell you if
that is spilling over to the free version. But overall I've drunken the
Ubuntu KoolAid and ditched KDE, so I wouldn't want to be pushed back to an
RPM/KDE distribution.

I run mount as sudo. ;-) The account listed as the "username" on the
mount is my domain account, which is a Domain Admin. That same account
is used to mount the shares from the Windows machines, and those mount
commands work. Just doesn't work to mount a share from another Samba
server.

I've tried "mount -t smbfs", "mount -t cifs", "smbmount" - nothing
works, to allow me to mount a share from the Samba server. All 3 work,
to let me mount a share from a Windows client.
