[TriLUG] Samba Question

[Jon Carnes]

What happens when you restart the service on the server (or just the
nmdb)?

I think this error has something to do with the "ultra secret security"
number that is generated by a PDC for a domain and then shared with
authenticated machines at the point when you authenticate them.  If the
server can't access this "ultra secret security" number then it can't
authenticate any other windows (samba) server to the domain, and it
can't add a new server to the domain. 

A domain has a SAM associated with it that authenticates each machine as
being a member of the domain.  Each server on the domain has an
individual SAM associated with it that authenticates that servers
identity.
