--
I have been through your diagnostics pages and FAQ, but I don't think it
answers my question, or maybe because I am new to this, I just
don't get understand. Well here goes:
I have installed samba v2.0.7. I have tested several user accounts
(From the NT domain "vortex") with mapping drives from the PC's
(running
Windows NT) with no problems at all. The problem I have is one
particular account (ie. user jsmith) which is in the NT domain
"goobang"
is unable to map drives. Now goobang "trusts" vortex.
I have the smb.conf file with the settings security = server and
password server = zaphod.
Zaphod is the PDC of the Goobang Domain
Nargun is the BDC for the vortex Domain
When I try mapping one of the shares the message returned with "the
password is incorrect. Try again."
I have attached the smb.conf for the site. Hope you are able to help....

# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too
# many!) most of which are not shown in this example
#
# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash)
# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
# may wish to enable
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command
"testparm"
# to check that you have not many any basic syntactic errors.
