can't join Domain with latest CVS

[Geerten Schram]

A few weeks ago I encountered the same problem. When I used a older version (samba-2.0.5)  of the
smbpasswd programm everything worked.
I think smbpasswd tries to connect to a rpcserver on port 445. I don't now if this service already
exists in Samba or that you have to connect to a NT PDC...
