      I am using Samba as a PDC with Windows XP clients. Everything
      seems to work ok (except for some bugs not related to this)
      except that none of the clients sees anything in the domain
      (Entire Network\DOMAIN). All computers/shares are accessible
      when brwosing \\computer. This is not the case when not using
      Samba as PDC.

      This is my configfile:

        socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY
        load printers = No
        domain admin group = root
        add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 100 -s /bin/false -M %u
        logon script = netlogon.cmd
        logon drive = Z:
        domain logons = Yes
        os level = 64
        preferred master = True
        domain master = True
        wins support = Yes
#        valid chars = This is something that doens't work right...
        admin users = root admin administrator
