What client OS? If NT/2K/XPPro have you joined it to the domain successfully?

You need a user ID on the Samba box set up as a Domain Admin to use to join these OS's to your domain.

I assume you are using a smbpasswd back end, you did add the user ID to that database?

Some of the text within my ramblings to this list on net groupmap apply to the topic of creating a domain admin account. You might read through the small office example URL on the Samba web site I 
posted in that thread as well. Sounds like what you are up to is what that describes.
