We are unable to join the domain and create computer account when AD username contains % in it like "test%user". I believe the issue could be that we use “%” as the delimiter between username and password net ads join -s XYZ.conf -U “test%user”%”password” createcomputer= XXXXXXXX hostnames=XXXXXXX Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org> has confirmed it is an issue. So i am filling this bug This issue is seen in samba 3.xxx versions too I not sure of the component, i have created it under winbindd, Please change it if required.
