When I enter the command on my Centos client, I get this:
Code: Select all
# wbinfo -P
checking the NETLOGON for domain[DOMAIN] dc connection to "" failed
failed to call wbcPingDc: WBC_ERR_DOMAIN_NOT_FOUND
How has wbinfo decided that the DC is "" (empty string)?
I had encountered this error message before while trying to resolve something with different Centos clients in the past ( viewtopic.php?f=47&t=78309 ), which I resolved by using the commands:
Code: Select all
# authconfig --enablewindbindauth --update
# authconfig --smbservers=ads2.domain.company.com --update
So how does wbinfo get the DC name for this particular command? Is it from a config file somewhere on the system?
As I was typing this, my colleagues now tell me that everything is working. I have checked wbinfo -P and that now returns the name of the server and is successful. So everything appears to be working now, but I still wonder if anyone knows the answer to the question?
