I am running Solaris 2.7 on my E250 with Samba TNG checked out yesterday morning PST.

I have successfully connected with NT4SP6a and Win98 now.   I have been following the
list for a few weeks now and had many many failures, but finally yesterday, I had
success.  Good work to Luke and everybody that has spent so much time and effort on
this.

Here is the steps I followed.  Pretty close to the typescript Luke put up a week ago.

smb.conf :
security=user
domain logons = yes
encrypt passwords = yes
workgroup = SAMBATNG
#netbios name = DON'T USE THIS SETTING!!!
# the rest was basic stuff.

- made sure all daemons were stopped
- wiped out everything in the var dir
- wiped out all my private/*.SID files
- restarted the daemons
- smbpasswd -a root  ( then I tweaked the pesky file to add the a U in between the
[U         ]
- rpcclient -S . -U root%test -l log
   > createuser myuser -p test
   > createuser mymachineName$
   > enumu     ( I have no idea purpose this servers but what the heck)
   > exit

- tweak the password file again  change the user property bracket for the my new user
to  [U         ]
- confirm my workstation account properties has [W             ]
- noticed myuser has NO PASSWORD set,  run the smbpasswd myuser  to set the pass
- check that the workstation account doesn't have NO PASSWORD if it does then
  run smbpasswd mymachineName$ and set the password to the machine name without the "$".

- rpcclient -S  HOSTNAMEHERE -u root%test -l log
   > ntlogin SAMBATNG\myuser test
      ntlogin SAMBATNG\myuser

      cmd_nt_login: login (myuser) test succeeded: Yes

- if it says no, you have a problem.  Check the smbpasswd file.

- switch to NT workstation network/properties, join domain,  just typed SAMBATNG and
didn't select
 the check box and enter root info,  (it failed when I tried that, this worked last
week, but not this time around)
- hit ok rebooted and boom it worked,
- Note I did get the slow connection warning box come up.  Not too sure what that is all
about,  I did some large file transfers and didn't find it slow.
- On the win98 machine it is slower than molasses after the login screen, but it does
come up and allows access to the shares just ticky boo.

hope this helps,  good luck
