[Samba] HELP Samba suddenly stopped working

[matt at rfbs.com.au]

can some one help me....

We are running samba on a mandrake v10 machine and suddenly we can't access the
samba shares.

it is in an ADS with MS sbs2003 as the PDC the error in the samba logs is

Aug 28 08:50:06 hermes smbd[27096]: [2005/08/28 08:50:06, 0]
auth/auth_domain.c:connect_to_domain_password_server(123)
Aug 28 08:50:06 hermes smbd[27096]:   connect_to_domain_password_server: unable
to setup the NETLOGON credentials to machine SBS2003. Error was :
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED.


It has been running fine for 8 months and suddenly stopped on the 28th of ug
nothing has been changed on either machine as I have been away from work for
the past 2 weeks and no one else has permissions.

it is urgent that we get this fixed but i can't work out what is wrong.
