can't join Domain with latest CVS

[Osama Abu-Aish]

Hello everyone out there,

The current CVS (4 hours old) causes me much trouble:

1) smbpasswd -j DOMAIN_TO_JOIN gives me:

error connecting to X.X.X.X:445 (Connection refused)
error connecting to X.X.X.X:445 (Connection refused)
Joining Domain as Workstation
get_trust_account_password: Failed to seek to start of file. Error was Bad file descriptor.
change_trust_account_password: unable to read the machine account password for domain 
DOMAIN_TO_JOIN
Unable to join domain DOMAIN_TO_JOIN

After a short look into the sources I think that the .mac-FIle isn't locked, so it can't be
fseek'ed.

To avoid the message I added the following lines to 
clienttrust.c/change_trust_account_password,line 90:

if(!trust_password_lock( domain, global_myname, True))
{
    DEBUG(0,("change_trust_account_password: unable to open the trust account password file  
                    for trust %s in domain %s.\n", global_myname, domain ));
    return False;
}
......READING_AND_SETTING_OF_NEW_PASSWORD.........
trust_password_unlock();

which made the message disappear.


2) smbpasswd -j DOMAIN_TO_JOIN results in the following message:

error connecting to X.X.X.X:445 (Connection refused)
error connecting to X.X.X.X:445 (Connection refused)

3) when connecting from a NTWKS to the Samba-Server it logs the following:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I have entered the correct password.

What is wrong there? What should I Change? What am I missing?

Thanks for any response,
