In case anyone was interested in my problem, I didn't get any
responses from this list, but continued to bang my head for the next few
hours and found the problem.
I turned off WINS on my experimental server and everything
worked out. Since we're migrating our Windoze machines to Win2k,
we won't be needing WINS anyway.

-> HEllo:
->
-> I have a 2.2.1 Samba server set up and in operation on our network
(Solaris
7)
-> I am TRYING to experiment with a different configuration, using Samba as a
-> PDC for our up-and-coming Win2K conversion, so I have
-> a second, experimental, 2.2.2 samba server set up on the same network.
->
-> As I said, I am trying to make the experimental server be a PDC for Win2k
-> machines The first server is just using workgroups and serves our
existing
-> Win98 machines.
->
->
-> I *think* I have some sort of browse(?) conflict going on between the
-> two servers.
->
->
-> Here is data to identify the computers involved
->
-> The operational server has netbios name HAOSERVER, on host
128.117.16.5)
-> and it serves workgroup "HAO"
->
-> The experimental server has netbios name BOB (host 128.117.16.39) and
it
-> serves domain "SAMBA2"
->
-> The Win2k client I try to connect to BOB (SAMBA2 domain) is
128.117.16.205
->
->
-> Here are the problems I experience:
->
-> * I can't get a Win2k machine to join the domain of my experimental
server
-> (although I think I am doing this right since I did this months ago
-> when I just had ONE server running!).
-> When I try to join the Win2k computer to the new, experimental domain,
-> I get the message "The specified domain either does not exist or
-> could not be contacted." However, on the Win2k machine, I can
indeed
-> SEE the domain when I go to My Network Places and click on "Entire
-> Network," so I know that the network connectivity is fine. I can
even
-> click on that icon and get to resources that I have shared there--
-> logging in as "root" and with the password that I have listed
in
-> the smbpasswd file, so I know that that is working ok.
->
-> * I get some funny messages in the nmbd.log of the experimental server
-> which repeat over and over (I get also other funny stuff, but I'm
-> trying to be selective about what part of the nmbd.log file I send):
