Adding Fedora PC to W2K Domain

pvtpilot · #1 3rd May 2004, 07:48 PM

How do I add my Fedora PC to my W2K domain, so I can see my W2k Server network? After I added a separate Nic, Fedora recognized it and installed the drivers. I'm plugged into my Cisco Switch and have internet access, but have been unsuccessful trying to find where to add a domain name, etc. so my Linux pc recognizes the network.

Any help would be greatly appreciated....thx much

I decided to try adding my Domain name to the Hostname and it worked. I'm now able to see all my domains/workgroups. However, the only domain that doesn't come up viewable is my W2KSRVR01 Domain. It appears as a file? Is there something wrong with the IP entered or aliase? Don't understand why it would see all except the primary Domain.

You did this without authentication, right? I'm currently using a FC2T3 box at school, and we're planning to set up a room with computers with Fedora installed, but we require authentication against Active Directory.

Currently I can mount the smb-shares on the network quite easily with nautilus, out of the box, but I'm a little consurned about the authentication issue...
