[Samba] Samba won't start and log says cannot create a SAM SID.

[Rhonda Gregory]

I'm running SunOS 5.8 and I've installed Samba 2.2.4.  Samba will not
start and the following error is in the log.smbd.  I have debug set at
level 10.  I have perused the archives for help but to no avail.  I have
also read thru DIAGNOSIS.txt.  Of course test 3 fails because samba is
not running. I checked the config file with testparm and it's ok.  Your
help would be greatly appreciated.

My smb.conf contains the following:
[global]
        workgroup       = ROUTEMANAGER
        load printers   = yes
        locking         = yes
        browsable       = yes
        socket options  = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_THROUGHPUT
        printing        = sysv
        printcap name   = /usr/local/samba/lib/printcap
        server string   = ECR RouteManager
        preserve case   = yes
        short preserve case   = yes
        debug level     = 3
    wins support    = no
    security        = share
 
 
[homes]
        comment         = Home Directories
        browseable      = no
        read only       = no
        create mode     = 0750
        #case sensitive  = yes
 
 
 
Thanks!
