samba - Dec 2002 - Samba 2.2.7a PDC with W2K SP3 clients - can't stay in domain

I've searched through the mailing lists and seen a few similar problems, but
those fixes didn't fix me.

Error:  I can join the domain, but after rebooting and attempting to log in 
I get the error:

The system cannot log you on to this domain because the system's compuer 
account in its primary domain is missing or the password on that account is 
incorrect.

Steps to obtain the error:

On Linux-Server:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/samba start
useradd -g 100 -d /dev/null -c "nickname" -s /bin/false demon$
passwd -l demon$
smbpasswd -a -m demon
useradd -m winuser
passwd winuser
smbpasswd -a winuser

On the W2K SP3 box named nothing:
RClick my computer -> properties -> Network Ident -> properties
Change computer name to Demon, change Domain to RAGNAROK
click OK, then enter root [root smb password]
Wait about 2 minutes to get the "Welcome to the RAGNAROK Domain"
click ok, ok, yes to reboot

Once I attempt to log back in again I get the above error.


Server: Samba 2.2.7a PDC

    netbios name = LINUX-SERVER
    workgroup = RAGNAROK
    os level = 64

      write list = ntadmin

      path = /var/lib/samba/ntprofile
      read only = no
      create mask = 0600
      directory mask = 0700
[home]
comment = Users' home directories
        path = /home
        read only = no
        public = no

Client W2K SP3:

No special configuration.

I do have a level 10 log available if necessary.

Thanks in advance.

I've noted the same problem with 2.2.7a. So far I've not found any
answer to the problem but simply chalked it down as "Samba not capable
of handling W2K SP3 clients". :-/
