nt logon error

[John T Chiodi]

I tried deleting WORKSTATION.SID and letting samba recreate it.  I
tried smbpasswd -m MACHINE.  None of this worked.  I have a feeling I
am missing the obvious here.  Do I need to log in as a local NT admin
and join the domain again? Isn't going to think I am already part of
the domain because I have an entry in the smbpasswd file?
What would be the proper steps to rectify this situation?
