[Samba] can not join the domain

Hi
whats your smb.conf ?
here is one posted 2 days ago
check passwd and smbpasswd for testpc$

do you have this line 
passdb backend = /etc/samba/smbpasswd guest
i found the guest is needed for login to samba pdc

this is related to samba3 beta1
for older versions it looks quite different

# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1)
