How to join a windows domain....

[cariboo]

Has anybody had a look at this page?

It deals with Ubuntu 5.10 but I can't see how this type of thing has changed since then.

Works right up until this command "# sudo domainjoin-cli join fqdn.of.my.domain Administrator" - then I get this error:

Error: Unable to resolve DC name [code 0x00080026]

Resolving '**mydomain**.local' failed. Check that the domain name is
correctly entered. Also check that your DNS server is reachable, and that your
system is configured to use DNS in nsswitch.

Anyone got any ideas?....

OHH OHH I FIXED THIS!!! Noob FIXED IT. I am running Jaunty. I went to the synaptic Package Manager and install the pam and nss profile switcher. Then in once that is installed I had to edit the /etc/nsswitch.conf look for line host: then add dns on that line. REOBOOT! Once I did that it worked fine.
