[Samba] Joining a Samba 3 domain repost

[Mike]

Hi

I have followed the Samba 3 by Example Chapter 2 small office network to 
the letter. I can connect to server shares using the root user and pw 
but when I try to join the domain I still get the message " while 
attempting to join the domain xxxx the user could not be found"

>From the log
  getpeername failed. Error was Transport endpoint is not connected
[2005/12/16 09:22:30, 0] lib/util_sock.c:get_peer_addr(1000)
  getpeername failed. Error was Transport endpoint is not connected

Thanks for any help you may be able to give
