Bug Description
Binary package hint: likewise-open
Hello all!
I have a trouble, maybe somebody encountered it too.
We have an Active Directory domain served by Win 2003 Server based servers. I am from Russia and all usernames and passwords in our network are in Russian.
We are developing Ubuntu-based distribution to replace counterfeit Windowses on some computers. I have a task to join the computers to AD domain. They join perfectly and I am able to login as a domain user.
But there is a problem with language or password encryption, I think. Here are possible combinations of user name and password combinations:
- english login and english password - login successful
- russian login and english password - login successful
- english login and russian password - login fails
- russian login and russian password (the most common case in our network) - login fails
Ubuntu version: Jaunty 9.04
Ubuntu package version:
user@admin:~$ dpkg -l | grep likewise
ii likewise-open 4.1.2982-0ubuntu2 Authentication services for Active Directory
Did somebody encounter the same problem and is there a solution?
Thank you very much and looking forward for answer.
Hi,
I was wondering if this is still a problem for you?
