Setting up more than 1 samba domain logon server in the same subnet

[shui at pointsnorth.com]

Hello all,

I have a samba domain logon server set up for Windows 98 clients using
SambaV1.9.18p8.  Logon and sharing are
working perfectly fine.  It is serving workgroup yyctpa.

Today, I installed SambaV1.9.18p8 again on another Solaris 2.6 running on a
PC (name TMA), using the same smb.conf as the workable
version but serving a different workgroup yyctpb.  I created an account
testuser in the smbpasswd file.  Then I rebooted my
W98 and changed the domain to yyctpb, entered testuser and the correct
passwd.  Here's the error I got:

The domain password you supplied is not correct or access to your logon
server has been denied.

I typed everything correctly.  Why is it working for  one installation and
not the other?  That confuses me.  The only difference
between the smb.conf on the two machines is that I took away the line "wins
support = yes" and "domain master = yes" from
the second one.    From the attached log.nmb below, I don't understand why
the samba for the second workgroup yyctpb
keeps on asking another NT workstation (204.50.11.49) for doing the name
registration whereas the first one has no such
problem at all?

Please, please, any advice and comment will be more than welcome.  Your
help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Sandie
