[Samba] Problem logging into Samba 3 PDC from Windows NT 4.0 ("...while the domain list is created")

Hi,

I have just set up a Samba 3.0.5 server for the domain FOO (from Deb
downloaded from samba.org site).  I want to test if my installation is
working fine.  So I picked one machine (Windows NT 4.0) from my
network that is currently on some other domain.  I added users in
domain FOO and added an account for the machine as well.  I now
removed the machine from the existing domain BAR (rebooted), added the
machine to the new domain FOO (and rebooted) successfully.

The problem happens when I now come to the log in screen.  When I try
to log into FOO, the NT machine shows a dialog box with "while the
domain list is created" and hangs.  If I leave things be for a while
the NT box crashes.

I suspect this is a Windows problem.  But thought I'd ask here because
I am sure someone else would have come across this problem in the
past.

If I took down the existing domain BAR and made my Samab machine BAR,
then there seems to be no problem logging into the domain BAR.

Thaths
