Hello folks.

Anyone done a deployment of Samba3 > 3.3.4

Had to install this version as I am preparing a domain for Windows 7 computers.

My installation on CentOS went well. smbd and nmbd are running OK. I am able to test user accounts with the

smbclient -U usertest \\host\usertest



 but I cannot seem to be able to add a computer, even a Win XP workstation to the domain. I used smb.conf files from a previous Samba 3.0.28 with minimal modifications.

Any assistance appreciated; for one with a successful deployment, kindly forward your smb.conf file, here is mine:

[global]
    workgroup = DOMAIN
    netbios name = DOMAIN_SERVER
    server string = Samba Server Version %v
    passdb backend = tdbsam
    log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
    max log size = 40
    add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m "%u"
    add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /var/lib/nobody -g 100 -s /bin/false -M %u
    logon script = %u.bat
    logon path = \\DOMAIN_SERVER\profiles\%U
    logon home = \\DOMAIN_SERVER\homes\%U
    domain logons = Yes
    domain master = Yes
    wins support = Yes
    cups options = raw

[homes]
    comment = Home Directories
    read only = No
   
[printers]
    comment = All Printers
    path = /var/spool/samba
    printable = Yes
    browseable = No

[netlogon]
    comment = Network Logon Service
    path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon

    share modes = No

[profiles]
    comment = Profiles Folder
    path = /var/lib/samba/profiles
    read only = No
    profile acls = Yes
