[Samba] 3.0.6-1 and XP SP2

I have a problem logging into 3.0.6 with an XP SP2 machine.

I'm not sure where this problem has arisen from as I have been testing XP
SP2 on a few machines and during this process I've done a clean install of
3.0.6.

I started testing a laptop and found that while logged in locally I could
access domain files as expected. 

When I tried to log into the domain I was presented with "Windows cannot
connect to the domain, either because the domain controller is down or
otherwise unavailable, or because your computer account was not found." So I
checked that I had remembered to add the machine to smbpasswd, which I had.

I tried removing and re-adding the machine to the domain (from the PC), all
successful. On the re-boot I get "Please wait while the domain list is
created" presented which persists for ~ 10 minutes. I'm still unable to log
into the domain, though local logins are OK.

Checking a level 10 log I could see that the following error: 

getsmbfilepwent: LM password for user machine_id$ invalidated

So I deleted the entry from smbpasswd and added it manually. That resolved
the getsmbfilepwent error, though I still can't log in.

The next error is against a credential check:

[2004/08/27 15:06:52, 5] libsmb/credentials.c:cred_create(96)
  	calc_cred: 4C55AE65FC7C1DAF

[2004/08/27 15:06:52, 5] libsmb/credentials.c:cred_assert(133)
  credentials check wrong

I at the end of knowing where to look so any pointers would be good.

Thanks

Alan
