| Active directory authentication problem. |

I have a Suse linux box and up until this morning it connected to a
windows domain without problems, the hardware crashed this morning and
since then I have been unable to login to the domain from the initial
login screen, the system tells me the username or password is
incorrect. I can login as root, then connect to network resources
through nautilus using my windows domain username and password, so the
account is ok. Is there anything I can check?

Can you check to see if your clock is right versus the server? Normally,
its best to set up NTP to use your AD server as the source. Once that
is done, try restarting samba and winbind, and it should start working
again.

Thanks for your reply.
When the machine crashed it did reset the bios and the time was years
out, I did suspect this was the problem because of AD's reliance on the
correct time, but I've reset the clock since and restarted the machine,
but I still have the same problem. Is there some sort of login cache
with the wrong date and time I need to remove?

AD is notorious even if your clock is a little out
Follow the suggestion of configuring ntp to be sure - it shouldn't take
more than five minutes to do

Thanks again, I've got the Suse box syncronised now, but still have the
same problem. After multiple failed login attempt the account does not
get locked out, our domain policy states it should lock out after 3
failed attempts. It looks as though the Suse box isn't passing the
request through to the domain controller, which is where my initial
cached thought came from.
