Hi,

I'm using the setup defined for my RH9 box to participate in a Win2000 
domain. I have server = domain, etc. This has been working fine for 
several months.

As of this morning, one user can no longer access samba shares. His 
account settings haven't changed. I am able to access shares from his 
workstation using my account.

I checked the log for his workstation. He has a number of errors, 
although the same errors are also in my workstation log, so I'm not 
convinced they are the problem. I've scanned through howto's and 
searched through the mailing lists, to no avail.

Samba 2.2.7a, RH9, Win2000 PDC

Here is the log contents, followed by the pertinent details of my smb.conf:

[2003/11/04 12:19:45, 0] rpc_client/cli_netlogon.c:cli_net_auth2(157)

Thanks in advance,
