Dear Group,
I have been working very hard for the last 3 days trying to get my W2K
To join a Samba Domain. I have tried it seems like everything to do it
and it won't go. I really think its something simple but I don't know
how to fix it.
The error I get is this one from W2k when trying to join the samba
domain.
""The Following error occurred to join the domain smis".
The account used is a computer account. Use your global user account or
local user account to access this server."

Here is a copy of my SMB.CONF file for your review.

Now one note I need to add I have tried using , "user, Domain, Share" d
for security settings none work.
I have tried using the command to to add machine to Linux_Server and it
comes up saying already added?

If someone would kindly help me I would be appreciative.

Thanks so much for your help here,
