Hello,

with current 3.0 CVS a 2.2.8a samba domain member is unable to
authenticate against the 3.0 domain controller.

Joining was successful, even the machine trust account has been created
automatically.

But if I try `smbclient -L localhost -Uqwe%erton` on the 2.2 server,
samba cannot authenticate against the DC:

[2003/07/28 16:45:36, 0] rpc_client/cli_netlogon.c:cli_net_auth2(157)
  cli_net_auth2: Error NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
[2003/07/28 16:45:36, 0] rpc_client/cli_login.c:cli_nt_setup_creds(72)
  cli_nt_setup_creds: auth2 challenge failed
[2003/07/28 16:45:36, 0]
smbd/password.c:connect_to_domain_password_server(1368)
  connect_to_domain_password_server: unable to setup the PDC credentials
to machine ALDEBARAN. Error was : NT_STATUS_OK.
[2003/07/28 16:45:36, 0] smbd/password.c:domain_client_validate(1601)
  domain_client_validate: Domain password server not available.

The only interesting thing I've noticed is that the password hashs,
which has been written into LDAP, everytime have the same values,
regardless of the client workstation or date&time of joining
(don't know if this is unusual, but our Win2K Clients everytime get a
new one, so this is a bit confusing in my eyes)

This is the created LDAP Entry (posixAccount has been created by
add machine script, sambaSamAccount by Samba.):

Has anybody out there a clue of what's causing this or had been able to
reproduce this thing?

Dariush
