[Samba] Internal error when using NIS+ with Samba 2.2.1a on Solaris 5.8

[Kapoor, Sandeep [IT]]

Hello, (Resent with extension of .sh file changed to .txt to avoid block by
anti-virus software)
I have installed Samba 2.2.1a on Solaris 5.8 with NIS+ option. Initially I
was getting the following error 
"[2002/08/08 16:38:05, 0] passdb/nispass.c:(372)
  make_sam_from_nisresult: NIS+ lookup failure: Database for table does not
exist"

However later I
1. Modified smb.conf to include smb passwd file = smbpasswd.org_dir
2. Executed mknissmbpwdtbl.sh (attached to this email)
3. Created a user on my Windows NT SP 6 machine with the same name and
password as a unix user sk86406 and then used pwdump to create a smbpasswd
file. I then moved this smbpasswd file to unix, edited the uid filed to
match the uid for unix.
4. Executed cat smbpasswd | mksmbpasswd.sh (attached) to add the entry to
NIS+. Note that the mksmbpasswd.sh has fields home and shell in the script
that are not created in the mknissmbpwdtbl.sh. Hence these fields were
edited from mksmbpasswd.sh.

The smb.conf file is attached. Now when I try to connect from a windows NT
workstation (SP 6) or Windows 2000 SP2 using net use * command to map a
share I get an network error and the log file shows the following error.
"switch message SMBsesssetupX (pid 17983)

I have been trying to make Samba work for quite a few days now and some
urgent help will be really really appreciated.
Thanks in advance
