Maybe you forgot to search the web for "samba username map linux domain" Try google, it came up with many good-looking hits and hints when I tried just now. I never had to deal with this stuff myself, but I do remember reading about it in the samba docs when I last did that.
I took a look and I saw I had no username.map file. I neither had any smb.conf file.
I run smbpasswd and created a user named adri. Then I edited the username.map file with a
Debian_user = NT_domain_user row.I also asked to my admin to erase and recreate a record for my machine in the domain, since I read this was necessary for samba to successfully join the domain.
I restarted samba (etc/init.d/samba restart)Then I got a different error message; this time it was "NT_STATUS_NO_TRUST_SAM_ACCOUNT"
So my changes produced an effect, though not the hoped one. Any hint? Thanks Bye Adri
