Hi
Anyone knows what to add into my DNS database file to let our filer understand what I want to do ?
I use BIND 9.2.2 on a UNIX box, not M$ DNS
here is the error message during cifs setup
Do you want to modify this name? [no]: CIFS supports three types of user authentication: 1. Windows Domain authentication. 2. Windows Workgroup authentication using the filer's user accounts. 3. /etc/passwd and/or NIS/LDAP based authentication. What type of authentication will this filer use? [1]: 1 The filer will use Windows Domain authentication. Enter the Windows Domain for the filer []:PLONK This seems to be a Windows 2000 domain, but CIFS cannot locate the '_ldap' services for PLONK in DNS. CIFS cannot install as a native Windows 2000 server in this domain until this situation is rectified. If you continue with setup, this filer will attempt to join PLONK as an NT4 server. Do you wish to continue and join PLONK in NT4 mode? [yes]: no
CIFS local server is shutting down...
CIFS local server has shut down...
Thanks

If your domain is a Windows 2000 (Active Directory) domain, give the DNS name of the domain (as shown in the Active directory controls on your Windows servers). This is often something like "windows.mycompany.com". If it's an NT domain, give the legacy domain name (PLONK).
