[Samba] Windows XP local services not starting automatically after
joining samba domain

Hi,
I am trying to setup a Samba PDC with Windows XP Pro Clients. I currently
run a Samba 2.2 PDC and am trying to change over to a Samba 3.0.5 PDC with
an LDAP backend. I can join the domain fine, but from there things are
getting rough. The Samba server is running on a Fedora Core 2 box with all
the current updates and all my clients are XP Pro. As soon as I logon (with
any account), I get can't find server copy of your roaming profile. This
turns out to be because the Workstation, Server, DHCP Client, Computer
Browser, and a few other services that should load at startup aren't running
when I logon. One weird thing is that the logon script from the netlogon
share still runs but all the drive mappings it is supposed to create fail
because the services aren't running. Another thing is that it affects my
local account also, because the services aren't running, but as soon as I
unjoin the domain or rejoin the old 2.2 domain things go back to normal and
the services start working again. Also, if after the computer is running and
I logon with a user, start the services, logout (not restart) and then I can
logon with any accounts and everything works fine. Any ideas on what could
be wrong in my setup would be greatly appreciated as I have been pulling my
hair out for a while on this one. I am also having some odd errors from User
Manager for Domains which I can live with, but maybe they are related. The
PDC is also running a DHCP server and DNS server so maybe something there is
wrong. Here is my smb.conf file and my IP info from my test client.
Thanks,
