Ok, I cannot make Samba authenticate against a win2k domain no matter what I do. When I try to join the domain using smbpasswd -j DOMAIN, I just get an error that says "failed session request, Unable to join domain DOMAIN". I assume I have to join the domain before it will authenticate against the DC's right? Because right now when trying to connect to a share, I get a failed user/pass error. Can I make it use LDAP to authenticate against our LDAP servers? Arrrrrrgh! Jay
