[Samba] Re: PDC: Windows xp sp2 reboots when login onto domain

[C.Scheeder]

Hi,
if i recall it correct, there was someone a few month?/years? ago (don't know how long exactly),
having a similar problem with a rebooting client on logon.
I think it turned out to be a problem of the windows-machine, some very crude combination
of bugs.
Search the mailinglist-archives for it, perhaps you'll find the solution there.
Good Luck
Christoph
