samba - Mar 2003 - Security =Domain problems

Hey all,
    Posted this about a week ago, have received no response, so I?ll try
again:

I?m currently trying to setup my box (samba 2.2.3a) to authenticate to a
win2k AD PDC.  I am currently importing users via LDAP, AD user
authentication is working like a champ, however, SMB authentication is not.
I can get it to work if I take out security=domain and change encrypt
passwords to NO. 
The following configuration works perfectly (albeit with plaintext
passwords) :

    Security = USER
    Encrypt passwords = NO
    Password server = ADPDC1

However, if I change it to this, it?s broken:
    
    Security = DOMAIN
    Encrypt passwords = YES
    Password server = ADPDC1

When trying to log in, authentication is broken.  I?ve succesfully joined
the domain from my box using:

Smbpasswd ?j domain ?r ADPDC1 ?u Administrator

The problem is that there are a ton of 98 boxes logging on to this machine,
including remote users, and it?s impossible to set them all up to use clear
text.  My guess is that this is a setting on my Active directory machine,
but I haven?t been able to find it.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  All
help is appreciated greatly.

Beau,

	You might want to consider updating to the latest version of
Samba and then give your configuration another go. It is possible that a
component relating to what your issue is has been updated and could fix
your issue.

	If after updating to the latest release and the problem still
exists, then repost to the list. (I have seen a few issues rectified
with a simple Samba update. So, it might work in your case too.)
