Hey Christian, 
Thanks for your response and your willingness to help me out! However, I 
am so excited to tell you that I have been able to join the domain for 
right now. As you said, commenting out "root=administrator" in 
'/etc/samba/smbusers' and then 'smbpasswd -a administrator' fixed the 
problem.

Only when your using NIS.
The problem is when joining Machine to Domain samba searches in ou=Peolple 
because of "nss_base_shadow|passwd"
And I read this in the smbldap-tools Mailinglist (www.idealx.org)

> nss_base_group ou=Groups,dc=icw,dc=com?sub
> nss_base_hosts ou=Machines,dc=icw,dc=com?sub
 
>What version did the samba team fix the ou= Machines for hosts?
I started manage LDAP with "LAM" and there are Machines and not Computers 
so I stayed on Machines.
Now I make quick mods on LDAP with "phpMyLDAPAdmin" it's great.
 
>I will contact you if I have trouble with this as I configure Samba+LDAP 
on the production box. 
OK
 
Thanks again,
 
Ambex
