[Samba] Re: Problem joining DOMAIN

[news.gmane.org]

The LDAP backend is searching for machine accounts in the Users ou.  It adds 
the Posix account info first, then attempts to find the machine account to 
create the samba attributes, but it's looking in the correct ou.  I believe 
this is fixed in 3.0.11.  I have found that by attempting to join the domain 
twice in succession it will work the second time.
