[Samba] Still having the same problem with Samba

Dear Team,
I am still getting this error even after making the change from security
= user to security = domain.
I even tried changing the domain name from SMIS to MARS.This is the
error
""The Following error occurred to join the domain smis".(MARS)
The account used is a computer account. Use your global user account or
local user account to access this server."

I am really wondering if I need to reinstall Linux?
Because this broken record is getting rather old.
I am using RH9.
I can use SuSE 8.2 PRO as well.

I really need to get this working so I can begin to test this in a work
environment- we want to do away with our NT4 box and eventually do away
with Vendow$ as much as we can.

Now I get this  error when trying to get W2k pro to join the Linux
Domain. Here is the SMB.Conf file again for review.
Thanks so much

K Williams
