guimenez,
The first thing you may want to check is if you can actually see your domain controller and if your machine is talking to your DNS server properly.
I'll assume your domain controller is also your DNS server.
Can you ping your DC?
If not let's have a look at your nsswitch.conf
One of the things that changed recently in Ubuntu was the hosts resolution order...
The defaults are now:
Code:
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
The problem here is that if you're not using multicast DNS or files, it bails and so you'll have no host resolution. I'd contend that this should read:
Code:
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=continue] dns mdns4
This would actually insure that dns is considered in the absence of mdns4_minimal (otherwise why even bother having dns in the options???!!!)
So I would advise you start by making that single change and then seeing if it resolves any DNS issues.
Then I would try joining the domain again. If you are using 6.0 your install lopcation _should_ be /opt/likewise
usiong sudo join the domain and make sure it succeeds. It should say SUCCESS!
Code:
> sudo /opt/likewise/bin/domainjoin-cli join MYDOMAIN.COM Administrator
It will prompt you for the Admin password for your DC and then it shold join without issue.
Let's start there and if problems persist let me know and I'll see is I can help further.
