[Samba] no access by set as NT Domain Member

Hallo...


I use Suse Linux 8.0 with Samba 2.2.7a in a Network with WinNT 4.0 PDC and W2000 Clients. Samba is set as Domain Member with security = Domain. I join Samba to the Domain successfully. So existing users can be validate by WinNT Server. Make Linux user as NT user and fill in File "smbusers" admin = Admin,hans = Hans.
Test Samba via smbclient on Server.

...but if I click on the "Linux-Samba-Server" Icon in the "Network environment" on a W2000 Client a dialog opens:

"Wrong Password or unknown user for \\LinServer"
 and fields to enter Name and Password

...if I enter correct Name and Password for NT User the dialog opens again and again.


smb.conf (some)
----------------------
workgroup = NT_DOMAIN
security = Domain
encrypt passwords = Yes
password server = NT_S
os level = 2
preferred master = No
domain master = No
----------------------



Error in "log.smbd" are:
------------------------
rpc_client/cli_netlogon.c:cli_net_sam_logon_internal(406)
cli_net_sam_logon_internal: NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER

smbd/password.c:domain_client_validate(1619)
domain_client_validate: unable to validate password for user xxx in domain APC to Domain controller NT_S. Error was NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER

smbd/password.c:pass_check_smb(545)
Coudn't find user 'xxx' in passdb.

smbd/reply_sesssetup_and_X(1001)
Rejecting user 'xxx': authentication failed
-----------------------------------------------

...user xxx in domain APC could be wrong? Domain Name is "NT_DOMAIN" and "APC" is the PC name of the Client where i try to access to LinServer.


If I change security option in smb.conf from "Domain" to "server" everything is ok. I see 2 share Directories. Home Directory of the user and a "forall" Directory. No Dialog opens for enter Name or Password.
But it takes 5-10 Seconds to access and open the Directories.

Can I make the access over "server" option faster??
Or what is wrong with the "domain" option and Error NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER?
