Dear all

I have samba PDC, i added all the computer names with $prefixed in
/etc/passwd
tdc$:x:1020:501::/dev/null:/sbin/nologin
and added the computer with smbpasswd -a -m tdc
and added root with smbpasswd -a root
and gave password

but when i go to the tdc computer, and the computer to the domain name, it
says,
Logon Failure, Unknown username or Bad password,

But i am giving correct username and password,

My smb.conf file is
