[Samba] Joining Linux to Windows 2000 domain

Hello,  I am new to Linux, Samba, and actually servers in general.  I am 
attempting to set up a Linux file server and join it to a Windows 2000 
domain.  All I want to be able to do is get files from the linux file server 
and put files on it.  I do not want it to be the domain controller.

I join the domain using:  net join -S 10.10.10.40 -UAdministrator%password

It tells me that I have joined the domain.

wbinfo -t  & wbinfo -p   work fine!

Wbinfo -u gives me: Error looking up domain members
Wbinfo -g gives me: Error looking up domain groups

Any ideas on what to do?

Thanks a bunch!

Linux is Fedora Core 1
Samba is 3.0
