domain login fails for Vista Business SP2 VM

[trio123]

I am able to join to my Windows Vista Business Virtual Machine to my domain using a (samba 3.0.22 openldap 2.2.26 on Ubuntu 6.06 server) PDC but whenver I try to log in with my DOMAINNAME\userid and password I get the message "user name or password is incorrect".

Logging in to my other Vista installs all work but they are dual booted via Bootcamp and I would love to get domain logins to work in VirtualBox.

I'm using the bridged networking so Vista has its own ip address in the same subnet as the host Mac and the PDC.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Forgot to mention I'm using Virtualbox 3.1.6 on Snow Leopard.

Have you tried username@domain for the login name?
so it would be "joe@what-ever-you-called-the-domain.what-ever"

username@domain did not work.

For some reason the sambaSID in my PDC's sambaDomainName entry had taken on the same value as the BDC so when I added the computer on my PDC with the command

smbldap-useradd -w workstation

and then on the workstation joined the domain through Control Panel -> System -> Change Settings -> Change ...

the resulting sambaPrimaryGroupSID for the workstation had a value of PDC's original sambaSID-515 while the sambaSID had a value of BDC's sambaSID-2*uid+1000.

I changed the sambaSID of the PDC back to the original value using phpldapadmin,
deleted the workstation entry using phpldapadmin,
restart slapd on both the PDC and BDC with the command /etc/init.d/ldap restart,
added the workstation again on the PDC with the command smbldap-useradd -w workstation,
and joined the workstation to the domain through Control Panel -> System -> Change Settings -> Change ...

As a result the workstation's sambaPrimaryGroupSID and sambaSID both have values consisting of the PDC's original sambaSID.

Problem solved.
