The message I get when I try to log in from a workstation is that the domain controller isn't communicating with it; when I check with the SAMBA log it says that the workstation tried to link up with it, but that there is no account for the computer in the domain and that it could not find the password. This almost makes sense (at least that it couldn't find the password if there was no account). However, SWAT (which seems to be a good way to administer a SAMBA account) doesn't tell me how to set up the computer accounts. I have built the LMHOSTS file in the /etc/samba directory, but this apparently isn't enough. Can anybody advise how to set up the accounts for the computers? Thanks. cheers, pete </body> </html>
