when trying to put a samba3 server into a domain (samba3 pdc) I always
get the following error messages:

[root at file samba]# net join -d 2 -U smbadmin RHEL -S
server1.example.com
[2004/09/30 23:36:35, 2] lib/interface.c:add_interface(79)
  added interface ip=192.168.0.150 bcast=192.168.0.255
nmask=255.255.255.0
smbadmin's password:
[2004/09/30 23:36:37, 1] libads/ldap.c:ads_connect(251)
  Failed to get ldap server info
[2004/09/30 23:36:37, 0] utils/net_ads.c:ads_startup(183)
  ads_connect: No results returned
[2004/09/30 23:36:37, 1] utils/net_rpc.c:run_rpc_command(141)
  rpc command function failed! (NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED)

User specified does not have administrator privileges
Unable to join domain RHEL.
[2004/09/30 23:36:38, 2] utils/net.c:main(792)
  return code = 1

I'm using a ldapsam backend, and authentication with smbclient is
working well. the user smbadmin is also a member of the domain admin
group, and group mapping was done:

[root at server1 samba]# net groupmap list
Domain Admins (S-1-5-21-3370306482-4184561861-561853233-512) ->
domadmin
Domain Users (S-1-5-21-3370306482-4184561861-561853233-512) -> domuser
Domain Guests (S-1-5-21-3370306482-4184561861-561853233-512) ->
domguest

I saw this on problem discussed on several mailinglists, but with no
solution. maybe anybody here can help me with a hint.

cu,
thorsten
