* To '''join''' a machine to the domain, it has to be done by logging in once as root(su --login). Unfortunately, Amahi does not currently create a root samba user. For now and until we enable granting admin rights to other users, do this:
smbpasswd -a root
(set the samba password for the root user)
smbpasswd -e root
service smb restart
service nmb restart
* Then join the domain: Select start, control panel, system, and click computername. Then select network-id and follow the wizard. (Domain name default is 'home' but can be changed in your HDA dashboard, under Setup > Shares > Settings then click on the domain name and change it to what you want.) When it asks you for a username/password, supply the root username/password you created above. '''This only needs to be done once'''
### smbpasswd -a root (set the samba password for the root user. You need to remember this for later!)
### smbpasswd -e root
### sudo /etc/init.d/smbd restart#### better yet: sudo service smb restart (per rgmhtt) ### sudo /etc/init.d/nmbd restart#### better yet: sudo service nmb restart (per rgmhtt)
