Ahhh Grafik, I remember them.

So the client PCs were able to join with no problems?

What’s the mode of the Citrix box, is it still trying to be a PDC/BDC? Also was the name of your new OSXS NT Domain the same as the old one? Also I’d check to make sure that the Citrix box is using the OSXS for WINS.

Hey Joel,

Yeah, they’re a good place. We actually haven’t tried to join client PCs just yet, for fear of trashing their existing roaming profiles. Already managed to hose an XP Pro machine this way. I was going to try my XP Pro on VPC as an experiment, but haven’t had a chance yet.

I don’t know if the citrix box was attempting to be a BDC, but it did used to have a list of users and passwords in NT User Mgr for Domains. I’ve heard on the XServer list that a windows machine can’t be a BDC to a samba PDC, in effect destroying our initial concept.

The OS X domain name is the same, although I tried testing a different one for a couple hours. The last step was making sure the WINS address was the IP of the OS X PDC, which it wasn’t. Changed that with no success.

Any other ideas still appreciated. I’ll report back with my experiences… 😛
