Hi everyone

I am having a problem with Samba 2.2.2 on Solaris 8/SPARC.  I have
configured Samba and have successfully joined my 2K domain (according to
smbpasswd), but I can't authenticate usernames.  From the log file, I think
the problem is that Samba did not join the domain properly.  I haven't had
any problems with my RedHat 7.2 setups running the same smb.conf structure
and same version of Samba.  When I look at the event log on my 2K DC, there
is a failed netlogon for the machine that I am trying to run Samba on.  I
have deleted the computer account from the DC and rejoined the domain, it
hasn't helped.  Anyone have any ideas?  I have included the log output from
when I try to conenct to the share from a Windows client.

thanks
Jeff
