I was recently doing some experimenting with Directory Server 5.2 and 
Samba on Redhat AS 2.1 and RHEL3 and encountered a strange issue that 
sounds somewhat related.  After everything was configured perfectly, 
win2k clients could join the domain, log on and everything was 
wonderful.  However whenever I tried to logon to an XP client with a 
domain account, it would authenticate and then reboot the computer.  It 
does not do this with OpenLDAP...I was never able to make any more 
progress on the issue and have since become sidetracked.

Is your XP client actually crash (blue screen) or is it just rebooting?
