NT_STATUS_INVALID_COMPUTER_NAME

[Pablo]

I remember (not very good becouse I did it two month ago) that you can fix
it adding your RED HAT 7 in the Server Administrator in your PDC.

Sorry if I am in an error.

Hello,

we are using Samba 2.0.7 (source code/recompiled with standart-options)
on a RED HAT 7 (2.4.0-test9) as a domain member
the passwd Server Server is a NT4 SP6 PDC. I've joint the SMB-Serer
sucessfully to the Domain but the authentication doesn't runs. It would
be very nice, if there is someone which could explain me the Logging
entry, specially the point
NT_STATUS_INVALID_COMPUTER_NAME.

Thanks for help,

Gerd
