samba domain

[James Willard]

Strangely enough, I am getting the exact same thing when using Samba
3.0-prealpha (HEAD branch). I can add a Linux system running Samba 2.0.6
without problems, but when it comes to adding the NT machine, I see the same
errors as the person below. Does anyone know for a fact that the recent
versions of the HEAD branch didn't break somewhere along the way? I have
previously used it for a long time, but then my harddisk started smoking (on
New Year's Eve, no less). I don't see anything unusual in log.nmb.
