[Samba] Winbind Fails to start

[LaSusa, Dan]

Maybe try changing 

Password Server to equal the netbios name instead of the ip address?

Help!

I have configured a Suse 8.1 machine with the Samba 2.2.7a rpm downloaded
from www.samba.org

This has been configured to become a member server in a NT 4 domain. I have
followed the instructions in the samba how-to (as I have many times before)
to join the domain.

As far as the NT server is concerned suse-tech is a valid server, can be
seen from server manager etc. However

suse-tech:/var/log/samba # wbinfo -t
Could not check secret

suse-tech:/var/log/samba # tail /var/log/samba/log.winbindd

This repeats ....

my smb.conf file reads

create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775

What have I done wrong?
