[Samba] SAMBA + LDAP : Unable to Login on a domain

Hi Everybody,

I am writing here this mail because I have a strange problem using SAMBA 
with authentication by LDAP. The OS is a Linux Debian Sarge 3.1 with a 
SAMBA 3.0.10-Debian. Communication between LDAP and SAMBA works fine. So 
I can access to SAMBA shares in workgroup mode using LDAP accounts.

When I try to join a computer to the domain, it works => Join is OK 
using administrator account from LDAP.

But the problem is when I try to log into the domain with an account. 
Samba says that authentication is OK but windows says that username or 
password is incorrect.

Does anybody has a solution for this strange problem.

I am sending with this mail my smb.conf

Thank you for your answers.

Best Regards,
Olivier BONHOMME

# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too
# many!) most of which are not shown in this example
#
# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash) 
# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
# may wish to enable
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command "testparm"
# to check that you have not made any basic syntactic errors.

# elections. The default value should be reasonable
