[Samba] String buffer error when trying to add to a domain

[lord_ph at comcast.net]

I don't know if the last one got to the list or not, so here it is again. Sorry if this is a repeat.

My computer name is BVERDIER-LNX
PDC= PNICG-PDC
BDC= PNSF-APP (can i use a bdc for this?)

Here is the command and error:
net join -d 3 -S pnicg-pdc -U AdminSF
