[Samba] Trust relationship fails after classicupgrade

Thanks Louis, it seems the DNS updates were working even with the
nsswitch.conf I had, but only for machines that I manually joined to the
new AD Domain.

I checked the ones I didn't join manually and they aren't proper members of
the domain anymore. If I try to logon with anything but the last (cached)
user account on a Win7 machine I get: "The trust relationship between this
workstation and the primary domain failed".

I am unsure what has changed. The classicupgrade worked flawless regarding
the windows machines' domain membership before. I redid it today, to no
avail. Got a new backup from LDAP from the still productive Samba 3.4.3 PDC
(running on Debian Lenny) and redid the classicupgrade again...still the
trust relationship fails.

Is there an explanation for this? I tested with a WinXP machine as well and
get the same error.
Both the Win7 and WinXP are proper members of the NT-4 domain. I made a
backup of the domain from the Debian Lenny, did the classicupgrade from the
backup (on the AD DC to be, a Debian Jessie), switched the IP adresses of
the Win7 and WinXP to the testing environment and they produce the
beforementioned error. Manually joining to them new domain is no problem.

The thing that surprises me most, is that it worked before with this
testing setup.

Rowland, regarding the naming conventions for NETBIOS-Domainname and
Kerberos Realm, we will rename them if we have to manually join the
machines to the domain. If it is possible to circumvent that, we'll go with
the dot in the NETBIOS name. We recognize it's not ideal, but renaming
would mean rejoining about a hundred machines and reestablishing their
locally saved user profiles.
