[Samba] samba-3 problem joining ws to domain

[cj]

Christoph

Thank you so much for pointing this out to me - it will save me from

I must have missed this info in the howto - I had assumed it was just

because I was using Sun Directory Server and not OpenLDAP as the backend.

Thanks again

Corey.
