	Ditto.  While the wiki *did* work a few weeks ago, I had to
reinstall Win7 after a 'System-Restore' deleted most files on the disk.
(There wasn't much on it except for program installations).  I am able
to join with a XP client -- unjoined, rejoined, rejoiced.  But the Win7
is giving nothing in the log (level 4) concerning the problem and in 
Wireshk, I'm seeing attempts at Net LOGON both with blank names and
with the machine name (machine$), and the Samba (3.4.3) DC says name
doesn't exist.    I do have the dword entries as mentioned in the wiki --
and that did work last time, but this time, nada.

	Not sure what debugging step to try next.  Ideas?

*sigh*...one step forward, two steps back...
