[Samba] samba 2.2.7 vs. win2ksp3

[Jan Peuker]

Hi list,

my problem is the following: My server("hauptserver", samba 2.2.7) runs as a
pdc. On PC No.1 "int01", win2kSP2, the user "int01" is able to connect to
the server and get its data. On PC No. 2 "int02", win2kSP3, the same user
gets an error. The error may be a hint that it is not recommended to name a
user and a pc the same (but I thougt it would be no problem because of the $
at the end) - so please excuse the question if this is the boring answer to
my problem. If I try to connect from "int02" to "hauptserver" I get the
following message "This account is an workstation account. Please use your
personal account or your local account to log in" - but this would be too
easy, Samba(int02.log) says the following:
[2002/12/28 00:51:31, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(381)
  make_connection: int01 logged in as admin user (root privileges)
[2002/12/28 00:51:31, 0] rpc_server/srv_samr.c:api_samr_set_userinfo(670)
  api_samr_set_userinfo: Unable to unmarshall SAMR_Q_SET_USERINFO.
[2002/12/28 00:51:31, 0] libsmb/smbencrypt.c:decode_pw_buffer(260)
  decode_pw_buffer: incorrect password length (-1474235624).
[2002/12/28 00:51:31, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(381)
  make_connection: int01 logged in as admin user (root privileges)
[2002/12/28 00:51:31, 0] rpc_server/srv_netlog_nt.c:get_md4pw(188)
  get_md4pw: Workstation int02$: no account in domain

As I already said, all Properties(IP, DHCP, User name, DNS...) are exactly
the same. My smb.conf runs in "encrypted passwords"-mode, but on my win2k
machines the secure-channel-flags are deactivated. Passwords are given and
are exactly the same, machine accounts are XXXNOPASSWORD etc, of course. And
a new user "int02" gets the same error....

thanks in advance,
