[Samba] problems accessing shares in NT domain

[Dave Thomas]

I am trying to access a share that is located on a NT 4 server that is 
also the PDC for the domain. I have been able to join the domain from 
the Linux server using "smbpasswd -j <NT_DOMAIN> -r <NT_PDC>" which 
seemed to work as planned. I can mount the remote share just fine but 
can not create files or list files on it. To me it looks like a problem 
with the user permissions on the NT server....but I need to cover my a** 
before I say thats the problem. The client swears that the permissions 
are setup right on the NT box.

Oh, I am able to use smbclient to logon to the remote NT system but get 
the same permission errors....cant list and cant create files.

Thanks for any tips on getting this sorted out.
