Hi
	I am having the most basic of problems. I have setup a PDC with samba 
2.2.2 and am trying to get my Win200) machine to join the domain. I followed the 
following proceedure
	http://ivy:901/swat/help/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html#SAMBA-PDC
	
	And when I go to the client W2000 box and change from the workgroup to 
join the domain I get a popup which says
	-----------------------------------------------
	Domain and Username Password
	
	Enter the name and password of an account with permission to join the
	domain
	
	Name:
	Password:
	-----------------------------------------------

What user and passwd do I enter here my domain is QTAC so I woul hav thought 
that it would be QTAC\root and the samba password setup for root.

	I will also add that I am currently having a problem (just within the 
last couple of hours) where it is not possible to browse the workgroup.
	
	Thanks in advance
