Samba 3.0.21b with LDAP backend The transfer to the Sanba hosted domain appears to work, ie success message, but I can't log on to a domain account from that workstation, complains about missing machine account or incorrect password. Only NT4 workstations seem to be a problem, Win2k and XP are Ok. NT4 is maximally patched, updated and etc - no registry hacks however. I checked the LDAP database - a machine account is being created. Where do I start looking for the cause of the problem?
