Please help with winbind setup

Thu Nov 8 10:49:03 GMT 2001

I have tried specifying the login name as
TESTDOM+larry, and it still does not work.  WinXP will
not even let you try it with a "+" as a separator.  It
just keeps saying the correct syntax is "TESTDOM\larry"
(what a PITA).  I've tried it from WIn2K and NT 4.0
boxes too with no success.  When i type in just
administrator or TESTDOM\administrator, it thinks for a
moment then spits the username:password prompt back at
me with no extra messages.  When i try with
TESTDOM+administrator from a Win2K, WinNT or WinXP box
all three say that the specified username is invalid.

I checked the log.ntserver (my PDC and test client for
now) since i bumped up the log level one notch and now
i am getting some error messages.  I have attached the
log file to this message.  It says something to the
effect that it could not fetch trust account password
for the MPCFDOMAIN (my real domain name).  The it
appears to try the more traditional authentication
methods.

Thanks for the help,
