I've got Samba 2.0.6 set up for domain logons, and they kinda work.
However, about 2 out of 3 times it doesn't work on the first try.
Almost always, my log on succeeds if I continue trying, usually 2-5
more times. The workstation is Windows 98. I can't roll this out to
my clients until I can get this to work every time, on the first try.
I've looked through the list archives, and I see some mention of problems
without having reverse DNS, which I do have, and some problems with
NT servers on the network, which I have none of, I think (and tcpdump
doesn't show any traffic between the client and any other servers,
but I'm on switched Ethernet, so I might not be seeing everything).
It seems as if the client doesn't have some information that it should
or is not certain that my Samba server is the correct server, because
the conversation between the two appears to be the same. I've also set
the log file to be %m.log, and watching the log for this particular host
shows no traffic.
Here's a sample of the tcpdump output:

The public demands certainties; it must be told definitely and a bit
raucously that this is true and that is false. But there are no certainties.
