Oh yes! This solves part of the problem - I do not have to give
user/password any more ... but still after "sucessfully" joining
the domain the NT box refuses to change its workstation account
password and keeps telling me that the "system's primary domain
password is missing" - aaargh.

BTW: The EventLog says

    The session setup to the Windows NT Domain Controller \\SUSIX for the 
    domain HEAVEN failed because the computer TESTNT does not have a local 
    security database account. 

A "local" security database account????!!!

Others seem to be more lucky than I.

There must be something really silly I'm missing.
