[Samba] Re: PDC replacement

[Bob Bregant II]

Hello again,

Just an update to see if this might help anyone help me, I did upgrade
the Debian machine to the newest Samba that it could handle, 3.0.24, but
alas I still get the error:

Fetching DOMAIN database
Failed to fetch domain database: NT code 0x1c010002

Any ideas?

Thanks,
