Problem with samba domain users.

[Long Doan]

Well, you got further than I did:

>smbpasswd -j ENGINEERING
Joining Domain as PDC
error connecting to <ip>:445 (Connection refused)
<smbpasswd hangs here, require a ^C>

As far as I can tell, there is nothing listening on port 445. What
additional parameters do I need to add to smb.conf to get this to work?

My smb.conf:

Hi,
I am running combined SAMBA_TNG which I downloaded today at 1:00 pm
and SAMBA main. I successfully created server account using smbpasswd,
joined  server to domain as PDC using smbpasswd -j DOMAIN, created NT
Workstation account and user account. I also have domaingroup.map file
with Domain Administrators group. When I logged to the domain I didn't
get the
local administrative rights. When I logged locally as administrator
,opened
User Manager for Domain and connected to my domain I got massage "A
remote procedure call (RPC) protocol error occurred." With local User
Manager I tried
to add domain users to local Administrator group. At first I could see
all my users
and add them. They are recognized as DOMAIN/user. When I opened local
Administrator group again I can see only DOMAIN/Account Unknown instead
of  DOMAIN/user.
