joining an NT Domain - failure

[Cannon, Mike R.]

I tried this and it gives me the same error.   Even went so far as to create
a root account in the domain as a domain admin.  Have the root account in
Linux and Samba sync to the same password as the domain.  Same error.

You need to specifiy the name of an NT account authorised to modify the
machine account using the -U switch. e.g -UAdministrator%password
S

I have read the SAMBA Project Documentation chapter 7, but I am having
troubles joining an NT domain.

I have used server manager on the PDC (testnt-06) to create the machine
account for Linux samba server (testnt-20).  I made sure that all smb
and nmb process are not running. I get the following (ip address have
been blocked):

[root at testnt-20 mintadmn]# smbpasswd -j test_domain -r testnt-06 -D 4
added interface ip=xxx.xxx.xxx.210 bcast=xxx.xxx.xxx.255
nmask=255.255.255.0

Any help would be great.  Thank you for your time.
