Problems getting a linux server to join a AD domain

[Alan Buxey]

Hi,

> In an attempt to integrate Radius with AD, and following the tutorial (http://wiki.freeradius.org/FreeRADIUS_Active_Directory_Integration_HOWTO) I have set up an AD server in our lab, and having trouble adding my linux box to the domain. Can anyone see what im doing wrong? The error I keep getting is:
> 
> $ sudo net join -w SECLAB -I 10.252.159.137 -U Administrator
> [sudo] password for wuntee:
> Enter Administrator's password:
> [2010/10/28 12:23:36.656829,  0] utils/net_rpc_join.c:406(net_rpc_join_newstyle)
>   Error in domain join verification (credential setup failed): NT_STATUS_INVALID_COMPUTER_NAME

net ads join SECLAB -U Administrator


if samba is configured correctly, with the KDC handled etc you really shouldnt
need to define an address and/or workgroup.
