Ok, I tried recompiling without the --with-profiles option to see if it made a
difference.  It didn't.  Here is the exact message I get from the User Manager
when trying to access the local admin group, "The connection to the domain
controller has been disconnected.  Either restart User Manager or use the Select
Domain menu item to reestablish the connection."  Note that this is from the
User Manager not User Manager for Domains and it is while being logged in as
administrator on the local machine.  I have also changed the debug level to 100
in the smb.conf file to see if anything unusual shows up in the logs.  All logs
simply logged that they were started.  Any other ideas?
