Hi
I want to try out the Samba 4 versions of smbd, nmbd and winbindd (not

samba and not as a DC) on a box which I shall join to an existing 

domain.

How do I provision it? Or don't I and just join it using samba tool
domain join?
Cheers,
Steve

Hi Steve,
You could try 'net ads join', the net command is there in
/usr/local/samba/bin and this is the command that would be used from a
samba 3 domain member, but I must say that I haven't yet tried this.

Hi Rowland

Yes, thanks I could alwasy do that but I thinking more of a samba'tool 

domain join method, as a member, not a dc. Anyone had any experience 

iof this? It looks too straightforaer to me. I must have missed something

Samba-tool commands is highly related to DC operation mode, for the 

member operation mode the net command is your companion.

Cheers,
Steve
