A) Make sure you go into Active Directory Users and Computers, and *reset* 
the account for the computer who is trying to join the domain.

B) On the samba server trying to join you type this as root:

smbpasswd -j DOMAINNAME -r 2000SERVERNAME -U 
administratorondomain%adminpasswordfordomain

It should then give you the desired effect :)

Good luck!
