  1. Hello!! I am trying to set up a Samba server with Win XP Pro clients. In brief, this is the current set up: Comp1: Firewall (DHCP) Linux Comp2: Proxy (Squid) Linux Comp3: W2K server (AD) My final objective is to replace Comp3 with a Linux server (Fedora Core 3) running Samba, which in turn will handle the roaming profiles. This is current problem that I am encountering: I edited the smb.conf file. Set it up to support WINS (wins support=yes) as well as the other respective settings. When I tried to configure the client PC to recognize the new domain, I got the following error: ====================== ERROR MESSAGE ================= Note: This information is intended for a network administrator. If you are not your network's administrator, notify the administrator that you received this information, which has been recorded in the file C:\WINDOWS\debug\dcdiag.txt. The domain name ERNSAMBA might be a NetBIOS domain name. If this is the case, verify that the domain name is properly registered with WINS. If you are certain that the name is not a NetBIOS domain name, then the following information can help you troubleshoot your DNS configuration. The following error occurred when DNS was queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate a domain controller for domain ERNSAMBA: The error was: "DNS name does not exist." (error code 0x0000232B RCODE_NAME_ERROR) The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.ERNSAMBA Common causes of this error include the following: - The DNS SRV record is not registered in DNS. - One or more of the following zones do not include delegation to its child zone: ERNSAMBA . (the root zone) For information about correcting this problem, click Help. ======================================= So I proceded to edit the hosts file and lmhosts.sam file as suggested by "clutch" (See forum titled: Samba PDC problem: /Samba_PDC_Problem_t30637.html). I also disable the firewalls, both of Windows and the anti-virus software, but I kept on getting the same error message. Can someone advice on a possible solution to this problem? Any recommendation is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for all your help. Sincerely, ecsamba
