Title: Failed to Join Domain
Post by: dlewis7444 on Friday 10 September 2010, 11:56:18 pm
This is the error I get when I click "Join ADS":

Failed to join domain: Invalid configuration and configuration modification was not requested

Authentication Realm domain.org
Domainname of AD server domain  (also tried domain.org - same error)
PDC ip address of AD server 10.10.5.8
BDC hostname of AD server 2domain
BDC ip address of AD server 10.10.5.9

Googled the error and found others that had similar problems.  But wasn't able to resolve the problem following any of the suggestions.

Have I missed a step?  Any suggestions as to what I can try?

The problem was my realm is "mydomain.org" and my domainname was "domain".  I guess EFW expects the the domainname to be exactly the same as the realm minus the TLD - in my case, "mydomain" instead of just "domain".

To fix the problem, all I had to do was edit the "winbind.conf.tmpl" file.  Change this:
workgroup = ${AUTH_REALM.split(".")[0].upper()}

To this:
$NTLM_DOMAIN.upper()

And I was able to join the domain.

Please try as attach. I fill information as show and click save then click join domain and insert username and password for query data in AD. If still fail try reboot and join again.
