Here is my scenario; I have a FreeBSD 4.7 Release running Samba 2.2.6.
I am using samba as a PDC.  I have installed everything need including
the Win XP Sign or seal registry patch.  I added a one XP machine
account for one machine, and it works fine.  Logging in and mounting
network drives with a netlogon script.  As soon as I add another machine
in the same subnet, different machine name, etc. I am not able to log
into either of the two machines now. Here is the windows error that pops
up." Windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domain
controller is down, or otherwise unavailable, or because your computer
account was not found, Please try again later.  If this message
continues to appear, contact your system administrator for assistance."
I have looked at the logs. nothing unusual as far as I can see.  I have
included my smb.conf file if this would help anyone. Any suggestions??
