Hello Luke!

I can join the domain, using the join dialog from
networksettings(under windows nt). I have not created a
workstation trustaccount with rpcclient before. I created a
password entry for root in smbpasswd and created a unix user for
the workstation. After that i was able to join the domain. But
after reboot i was not able to login. The error message was:
computer account does not exist or the password is
wrong.(translated from german)
I can't find something wrong in the log.files.

If i use rpcclient as root, under solaris, i get a buserror and
the size of rpcclient is zero. After that i can't use rpcclient
anymore. Need to investigate this more.

While playing with rpcclient, i tried to shutdown i Windows NT
workstation, but i failed. But that's not important. But i would
be funny, to shutdown the NT pc. :-)

Cu
