samba - Nov 2002 - unable to login to domain using XP

Hi,


I have configured my samba server to be a PDC and I am able to join the domain
using my XP.
But after I do a restart and try to login to the domain, it prompted me
"Windows cannot connect to the domain, either
becos the domain controller is down or otherwise unavailable, or becos your
computer account was not found "

When using win98, I am able to login. I have also check the /etc/passwd and
smbpasswd file and i can see my XP computer name there.

What could I have configured wrongly.

Windows XP tries to connect to a Server over encrypted connection.

Goto....

Control Panel
Performance and Maintenance
Administrative Tools
Local Security Policy
Under the Local security settings goto
Local Policies
Security options
In the right pain look for.....
Domain member:Digitally encrypt or sign secure channel data (allways)
Change setting to disabled
Close the local security settings window and first try reloging into the
domain. If for some reason that doesnt work reboot then try it again.

This worked at my machines.

Hello all,

I set up a samba server 2.2.5, locally all went fine, but when I try to
access a restriced share (valid users = xxx) with a XP machine
(security=share), the username is greyed and set by default to Guest.
Anybody else had this problem or any suggestions ?

Thnx in advance.

Paul
