ok, darn.  well, i only got the last one, because it overwrote the login
from the other users.

also, it doesn't help hthat your root user ntry has no uaccount control
bits (it should be marked as [U     ] like the others, to indicate that
it's a user.

i don't know how this occurred.

manually edit the smbpasswd file to corret this, ok?

also, try restarting the daemons, esp. netlogond, and send me a .tgz
archive again, okie, checking first that it has a net_sam_logon in
log.netlogon from the actual user that tried to log in, along with a
status code failure.

thx sean!
