Hi Andreas,

Thank you very much for the suggestion.  I read that doc before and have 
read it again.  I believe I made a little progress, but not enough.  
Now, in joining my W2k Pro client to the "domain",  I get this error 
message:

"The following error occured attempting to join the domain "SAMBA":
"Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password."

The user "clement" and the machine user "clement$" were both manually 
created.  The log.smbd also showed the password was authenticated.  Do 
you have any suggestion about the trouble?

The log.smbd is quite large.  I can produce it if needed.  Here is the 
smb.conf

# Global parameters

[global] 
        security = user
        ; status = yes

        ; This is the Domain name
        workgroup = SAMBA

        ; wins server = { ip of a wins server if you have one }

        encrypt passwords = yes
        domain logons =yes
        logon script = scripts\%U.bat
        ; domain admin group = @admin
        add user script = /usr/sbin/adduser -n -g smbmachine -c Machine 
-d /dev/null -s /bin/false %m$
        guest account = smbguest
        share modes=no
        os level=65

        log level=10

        passdb backend = tdbsam, guest


[homes]
        guest ok = no
        read only = no
        create mask = 0700
        directory mask = 0700
        ; oplocks = false
        ; locking = no

[netlogon]
        path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon
        writeable = no
        guest ok = no


[profiles]
        path = /var/lib/samba/profiles
        read only = no
        create mask = 0600
        directory mask = 0700
