Win XP logging into Samba

[FrogBear70]

I have a problem with my Win XP machine logging into Samba. It can join the domain but when I restart it won't let me login. It keeps giving me a Domain Controller not found error.

My Win 2K machine can login just fine. Which leads me to believe that my Samba PDC is working fine. I can browse to shared directories once I've logged into WinXP (locally).

Anyone have any ideas I would appreciate it?

theres something needing to be changed in the registry.



Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Netlogon\Parameters]
"requiresignorseal"=dword:00000000


that should fix your problem. =)

Thanks I'll give it a try.

Hey Elfking, what's that registry tweak for?

It lets Win XP machines login to a Samba PDC. It works great but remember to apply the change then join the domain. At least that was the only problem I had. Thanks ElfKing.

Yeah sorry for the late reply, glad it worked...

I read something about it just adjusting the way xp accepts "signed" passwords from other microsoft os's... im not entirely sure on this its been quite a while since I read up on it...
