[Samba] samba-2.2.8a and PDC help!!!

[Yunier Saborit Ramírez]

Of course when i reboot the client, the server i think is not necessary to 
reboot; the problem is that the clients could not log on user after the 
system is reinitialize...
and i not know what is the reason for...
i'm not a gurú whit linux, but i think that linux is a good choice, and i 
'm trying to chance the way of think on peoples on my University...
If i finally mount a PDC on linux it's will be a great point to my favor in 
the discussion...
