NOTE: Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1) may require the RestrictAnonymous
registry subkey to be set to 0 and the value of the RestrictNullSessAccess registry subkey
also to be set to 0. Run regedit from the start button and find RestrictNullSessAccess
under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ LanmanServer\
Parameters. For more details, refer to “trusts RestrictNullSessAccess” on the Microsoft TechNet
at http://technet.microsoft.com.
Alternatively, if you do not want to change the registry on Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1
(SP1), you can use the --set-auth-user option of the wbinfo command to set a domain user
account and password for the Winbind service. Using this option enables the Winbind service to
authenticate itself with a valid domain user account while accessing the user and group information
from the Windows 2003 Server.
To create the corresponding configuration of the Samba domain PDC for two way trust relationship
with the Windows domain, logon as root and execute the following steps:
1. Run the following command to start the winbind daemon:
startsmb -winbind
2. Add a trust account for the trusting Windows domain to /etc/passwd. Add the trusting
domain name with the “$” using the useradd command.
For example, the following command adds a trust account for the trusting Windows domain
name, windomainA, to /etc/passwd:
useradd windomainA$
Due to the maximum name length of 8 for the useradd command, you may need to edit
/etc/passwd to add the trusting Windows domain name account.
3. Run smbpasswd to add a trusting Windows domain Samba account to your trusted Samba
domain database and create a password for the trusting account. Use the same trusting
76 Windows 2003 and Windows 2008 domains
