<rant>Every time I set up a new test Samba server, the step to "net rpc rights grant..." ALWAYS fights me tooth and nail... ALWAYS with a different error message. I've even created little scripts to 
run so I am not typing commands incorrectly... but NNNOOOOOO, the script to grand rights to one stink'n account always has to complain!</rant>

OK, this time it is...

Could not connect to server 127.0.0.1

HUA?!?!?

ldslnx03:/var/log/samba# netstat -taupen | grep mbd

This is on a 10.10.10.xx Class C network.

Am I missing something obvious? Is it REALLY dinner time?

I have a stock smb.conf file, change the server / workgroup name, that's it.

Running on Debian Sarge. Simo's deb packages from samba.org, trying 3.0.21b packages this time. Backed down to 3.0.21a just to make sure it was not a new bug in the (b) version. Running 3.0.21a on all 
of the other servers.

TIA!
