[Samba] new user cannot logon

hi all,

I've set up a samba3.0.3 as pdc for my w2k-domain with ldapsam-backend
(cyrus-sasl, heimdal) on suse9.0.
everything worked fine. but yesterday the /dev/sda1 (/homes; xfs file
system) crashed, when I created a new user with smbldap-useradd. I could
repair the xfs file system and everything seemed fine.
to test the system I've created a new user. but the new user cannot logon.
	"error: The system could not log you on..."

(well, I hope this is correct. in german it's: Das System konnte sie nicht
anmelden...)

I have no logon problems with old users, I've created before the "crash".
I've also tried the following:
	stop samba
	delete secrets.tdb
	# ./net getlocalsid and edit the smbldap.conf
	# ./smbpasswd –w <secret>
	start samba
	rejoin the domain with my w2k machine
... but to no avail.

in the log file I found:
[2004/07/08 13:08:15, 3] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(219)
  check_ntlm_password:  Checking password for unmapped user []\[]@[ZS1W110]
with the new password interface
[2004/07/08 13:08:15, 3] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(222)
  check_ntlm_password:  mapped user is: [VERBUND]\[]@[ZS1W110]

does this mean, samba cannot find the user?
when I do a "pdbedit -Lv" everything seems o.k. and the user can also logon
directly on the linux system.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
