[Samba] Samba PDC and Snap servers

I am using Samba on top of NIS as an authentification server; all data is on
a Snap server (Quantum Snap 1000); the SNAP accepts a user list definition
from a Windows domain but officially does not support anything not Microsoft
(i.e. not Samba PDC)

The snap server actually recognizes the Samba PDC but is refused access to
the IPC$ share and therefore cannot list all users and groups in the domain.
I get the following error messages in the snap server log.

03/20/2002 15:34:51 19 D SMB | SMB :  rejected IPC connect (1,67)
03/20/2002 15:34:51 19 W SMB | SMB : Failed to connect to IPC$ on domain
controller.

The snap server is set up as a workstation trust account on the samba
server.

Has anyone encourntered similar problems?

Can I (and how do I) test access to the IPC$ share via rpcclient?

IOs there a setting in smb.conf that disallows such access? (Windows 2000
workstations seem able to list domain users via Windows Explorer, and
Control Center | Users).

Thanks in advance.
