Hello,

Recently I have been charged to turn my Samba server into a PDC.

I need to authenticate Windows 2000 machines as well as Windows XP.

My server runs Linux Mandrake (kernel 2.4.3), Samba version 2.2.1a. 
The machine trust accounts and the user accounts are made 
(both in the passwd and smbpasswd).

I have test boxes with each OS, They are both able to join the domain.
Upon reboot, I am not able to log into the domain. 
This the Windows Error message:
	'The system can not log you on now because the domain BLUELTE is not available'
I am including my smb.conf.

Any help is appreciated.
