[Samba] Cannot get machines to logon to domain

  The problem is whenever I try to load a computer onto the domain (WinXP Prof
or Win2000) I enter in root and the root password and I receive an error that
states "The user name cannot be found."  However if I try using a different
account then it gives me an access denied.  And if I purposefully get the
password or user name wrong it gives me an error that I have entered in a wrong
username and password.
  Now the latter two errors are logcial and it seems that the server is
communicating because I can see the shares on the windows box.
  So again the problem is that I cannot get the machines to join the domain.  I
created the group and each computer manually.  Then I added the users and
machines  using smbpasswd manually.

Here is my smb.conf
[global]

  workgroup = MIDDLE_EARTH
  netbios name = ISENGARD
  server string = Isengard

  browseable = yes

  printcap name = /etc/printcap
  load printers = yes
  printing = cups
  cups options = raw

  log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
  max log size = 200

  security = user
  encrypt passwords = yes
  passdb backend = tdbsam
  smb passwd file = /etc/samba/passdb.tdb
  username map = /etc/smbusers

  unix password sync = Yes
  passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
  passwd chat = *New*UNIX*password* %n\n *ReType*new*UNIX*password* %n\n
*passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully*

  socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192

  os level = 35
  domain master = yes 
  preferred master = yes
  local master = yes
  domain logons = yes
  
  logon path = \\%L\Profiles\%U
  logon drive = H:
  logon home = \\%L\%U

  dns proxy = no 

#============================ Share Definitions ==============================
   idmap uid = 15000-20000
   idmap gid = 15000-20000
   template shell = /bin/false
   winbind use default domain = no
[homes]
   comment = Home Directories
   browseable = no
   valid users = %S
   writable = yes

[netlogon]
   comment = Network Logon Service
   path = /helios
   guest ok = No
   writable = yes
   browseable = No
   admin users = root

[Profiles]
    path = /helios
    browseable = No
    guest ok = No
    profile acls = Yes
    read only = No

[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   path = /var/spool/samba
   browseable = No
   guest ok = Yes
   writable = No
   printable = yes

[temp]
   comment = Temporary file space
   path = /helios/temp
   read only = no
   public = yes

[public]
   comment = Public Stuff
   path = /helios/public
   public = yes
   read only = No

[oldserv]
  path = /helios/oldserv
  public = yes
  read only = no
