[Samba] Can't join my domain

[Bevan Agard]

Guys and dolls,
Greetings, I hope you all are in good health, great spirits and your glasses
never empty.

I have a samba, openldap question.

I am trying to setup a FC-4 box to be a PDC for a small network of about 150
users.  I was following the HOWTO on the SAMBA site.  Everything seems to be
fine however I cannot join the domain.  I get the error "User name could not
be found." The error logs show that the login/password used to join the
domain was accpeted and correct.  I decided to step back a bit to see if the
PDC could join the domain but also no luck.  I got the following when I ran
the command

[root at anansi ~]# net rpc join -d 3 -l -S PDC -U root

I googled the the NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED error and no luck as of yet.

Have any of you samba sensei seen anything like this or have an suggestions
as to how to kick this trouble ticket out.

Thanks
