Windows 2000 joining 2.2.alpha1

[Newman]

Are you using alpha1.tar.gz or the cvs tag samba_22?
To join w2k you need the cvs version.
Did you created the root account on you pdc? it is necessary to add a
w2k to server.
if all this is ok, send me directly a log level 2 or 3 gziped of a
failed workstation logon.

Good Luck.
Newman
