Zimbra + Samba & ou Machines

[thealchemistsark]

Hello Everybody,

We have been able to get our ZIMBRA SAMBA configuration right to a great extent. But we are still facing some problems. We are using Centos 5.2

Help

1. The machines are added using the following script
add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -c Machine -d /var/lib/nobody -s /bin/false '%u'

The machines can join the domain once i provide the User Name & Password. Once the XP Client is rebooted the same username and passwords are not accepted on the client to join the domain. I get the error "A Device attached to the system is not functioning" Any Solution


2. We are using LDAPAdmin the windows based application. I can see ou=groups, ou=machines, ou=people. Everything is fine till here i.e. the groups the people and machines

However when I go to ou=groups cn=Domain Computers and try to add members i see the list of people rather than the machines which are added to ou=machines. This is very critical for me as i need to define roaming profiles for certain users. Any Solution
