access for local machine NT user using security=domain

Hi all,

I am using Samba 2.0.6 on SCO OS 5.0.5, using security=DOMAIN.  On one of
the WinNT member servers, I  need to run some processes as administrator.
Because I do not want to have the standard user for this system having
network administrator privileges, I have set up the user on the local
machine with administrator privileges,  ie the standard login on this server
is user 'rs1user' on to domain 'ccsydrs1' (the machine name).   With this
login, I can access shares on other WinNT servers, but not on any of the
unix/samba servers.  The same username is set up on the network, as a normal
user, and connects to the shares fine, I just can not run the processes.

It is obvious from the log messages, below, why the samba connection is
working the way it is.  My question is, does anyone know how to make samba
work like WinNT, so that I can access the samba shares whilst logged on
locally, rather than to the domain. 

I have attached the relevant log messages, and my smb.conf

Thanks
