samba - Sep 2002 - Cannot join a Samba Domain with a win2k station

Hello,

	I try to join a samba domain with a Win2k Server. The result is a box with the
message:
	
	The following error occured validating the name "myDomainName"
	This condition may be caused by a DNS lookup problem. For information about
trouble shooting common DNS lookup problems, please see the following Microsoft
Web site: http://..../...
	The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted.

	
	It seems that a record lacked in the DNS but I cannot find which one.

	Any clue ?

my smb.conf:
-------------- smb.conf --------------------
[global]

    workgroup = MDKGROUP
    server string = Samba Server %v
    printing = cups
    log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
    max log size = 50
    security = user
    encrypt passwords = yes
    socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
    dns proxy = no

thanks in advance

Thanks for the answer.

Unfortunately, it seems that it doesn't work better.
I also try to copy the SRV record of a DNS server which was automaticaly updated
with a Windows PDC... again the same result.
