Use default domain with likewise-open 5.4

[Charlotte18]

In Likewise-open 5.4, something has changed, and the line "winbind use default domain = yes" can no longer be added to "/etc/samba/lwiauthd.conf" if you want the Ubuntu login screen to assume the default domain.

I found a thread that seems to offer a solution to this:

http://www.mail-archive.com/likewise.../msg00141.html

I do not understand the explanation given though. Does anyone know how to do this in 5.4?

After some investigation, I found that enabling the line "assume-default-domain = yes" in /etc/likewise/lsassd.conf works.

Okay, my last post does not in fact contain a solution for 5.4. Here's how I had to resolve this issue.

I completely removed 5.4, downloaded the 5.3 installer from likewise.com, joined the domain with that instead of with 5.4, and then enabled the line "assume-default-domain = yes" in /etc/likewise/lsassd.conf.

I still cannot get 5.4 to work.

There is an open bug for this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...en/+bug/534629

Also, I should mention that using the version from likewise.com broke my local logins so that it was only possible to login via network accounts. For me, since I had no network accounts with admin rights, this meant that I had to boot to terminal and edit the super user rights file in order to have any control over the system.

None of this has been terribly inconvenient, but I hope likewise works correctly when 10.04 is finally released.

Does anyone know whether likewise-open 5.4 will allow the default login to be the domain, in the latest release of Ubuntu 10.04? I cannot update my machines till this issue is fixed.
