Hello.

Downloaded and make installed latest PDC CVS code (greater that 991024
tarball I had).
First time I've used CVS.
I was connected to work at the time (PPP - different subnet but there is
a NT Domain controller up there)
My site is one RedHat 6.0 server and one NT 4.0SP4 PC on one class-C
subnet.
My smb.conf file approach is to setup the RHat server as a NT PDC with
user level security.

Any ideas on what it wrong?

I get the following trace when running "smbclient -L \\\\<my host> -U
<myself>

...
Adding chars 0x9c 0x0 (l->u = False) (u->l = False)
Added interface ip=192.168.1.1 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
cli_connect_serverlist: Domain password server not available.
cli_shutdown
get_domain_sids: unable to initialise client connection.
Can't setup password database vectors.

Note that encryption is on however I can't smbpasswd -a <myself>. I get
same message.
