[Samba] machine trust account issue

[Sean Roe]

Hi All,

Just joined this list so excuse me if this has been addressed recently.  
I have a samba server acting as a pdc for my domain and all the 
workstations except on log on fine and work like good little windows 
boxes should.  I just built a new machine and joined it to the domain 
and that all went smoothly, a user can log on to the domain no problem.  
but after they have logged in and are getting ready to start, an icon in 
the tray comes up and says the fileserver (pdc) is offline even though 
it isn't. This happens to all users who loginto the workstation except 
'administrator'.  I have tried renaming the workstation, leaving the 
domain and rejoining, deleteing the machine account. I am at my wits 
end.  The workstation maintains connectivity to the internet with no 
problem, so I assume the networking is all good, but  I have no idea 
where to go from here.

Thanks,
Sean
