[Samba] User Level Security and PDC

[James Kreuziger]

So, I have this Samba PDC setup, and it's gotten to
the point where a good number of my Win2K and WinXP
boxes refuse to acknowledge that the PDC exists.
If I logon to the Win boxes on a local account, and
go to the run dialog and type \\mymachine, it prompts
me for a username and password.  I can then see my shares.
If I logoff the local account and try and logon to
the domain, I get "Domain MYDOMAIN is unavailable".

So why would I have user level access available through
a local account and not access to my domain through
my PDC?

Below is the relevant portions of the [global] section
of my smb.conf
