I was able to resolve this issue.  Just in case anyone is interested, I
HAD to upgrade the PDC FIRST.  Then I was able to upgrade the member
servers without problems.
*********************************************************

I am trying to upgrade our fully functional Samba domain from v3.0.2 to
v3.0.7 or v3.0.8.  My question is, do I have to upgrade every server in
the domain in order for it to work or should I be able to upgrade one
server at a time, test it, and move on to the next server?  Or should I
upgrade the domain controller first, then upgrade the member servers one
at a time?  
 
I've tried to upgrade one member server to v3.0.7 and then to v3.0.8 and
I have the same problem with both versions:  I can't even access the
server in Windows Explorer.  I get this error: " \\<server> is not
available.  You might not have permission to use this network
resource...There are currently no logon servers available to service the
logon request. "
 
The Samba log gives these types of errors:
[2004/11/09 14:26:42, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(312)
  check_ntlm_password:  Authentication for user FAILED with error

Our basic environment consists of one domain made up of:
* Nearly 30 Unix/Solaris 8 & 9 servers - all member servers except one
which is the domain controller (no backup domain controller)
* A handful of Windows NT & 2003 member servers
* Windows 98, NT, 2000 & XP workstations configured to access various
Samba shares
 
* We also use winbindd
 
* Pertinent Global settings in domain controller server:
[global]
        workgroup = ourwkgrp
        netbios name = domainsvr
        username map = /opt/local/samba/user_map/user.map
        domain logons = Yes
        preferred master = Yes
        domain master = Yes
        wins server = 159.181.33.12

* Pertinent Global settings in member server:
[global]
        workgroup=ourwkgrp
        netbios name = membersvr
        security = domain 
        password server = domainsvr
        domain master = no
        local master = no
        wins server = 159.181.33.12
        idmap uid = 10000-16000
        idmap gid = 18000-24000
        winbind trusted domains only = Yes

Thank you for any help you can give.
