[Samba] not able to log on (PDC with ldap backend)

[ingo.schmitt at binarysignals.net]

Hi, I just posted my smb.conf to pastebin: http://pastebin.com/r29mgMcK

I haven't specified ports - I assumed the default ones should do.
I guess I ran more into a client side issue but I actually don't know.

pdbedit -Lv shows the Administrator and the respective machine account.
The only attribute I miss is the [A] for the Administrator account, it
shows a [U] only. But thats cannot be the reason why I cannot logon. Im
also able to ping the client from the server. So the client is basically
able to connect.

Thx,
Ingo
