[Samba] WinXP can`t log on Samba PDC

I`m folowing the steps on the unofficial Samba how to. I already join my 
WinXP box to the domain but I can`t login from my WinXP box after restart.
There is an error message that sais: Windows can`t connect to the domain 
because the domain controller is unable or


I`m using Samba-2.2.7a on red hat 9.0 with kernel 2.4.20-18.9  

this is my smb.conf
[global]
        domain logons = yes
        encrypt passwords = yes
        guest account = smbguest
        log level = 2
        log file = /var/log/samba.log
        logon drive = p:
        netbios name = server
        os level = 99
        preferred master = yes
        security = user
  socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
        wins support = yes
        workgroup = workgroup

[public]
       path = /tmp
       guest ok = yes
       writeable = yes

EOF

I already made the changes on regedit in my WinXP box.

this is how vipw looks like:
gino:x:500:500::/home/gino:/bin/bash
R32$:x:1200:300:workstation:/dev/null:/bin/false

this vigr:

[Samba] WinXP can`t log on Samba PDC

Just noticed that your smb.conf does not contain 
Domain master = yes
And there is no [netlogon] share


Good info on Samba setup can be found here

[Samba] WinXP can`t log on Samba PDC

So what does this XP Patch do?


In regards to XP, I have XP Home and Pro laptops that have issues when
talking to samba, they connect, then eventually time out, or disconnect,
upon reconnect, XP tries to log in with administrator or a blank
username.  Its driving me to insomnia because I work third shift, and my
coworkers batty because they keep having to call me during the day.

Keep in mind, I've been slowly going to Linux over the last 7 years, and
I don't have a windows box to my name, I only have to support XP because
ppl like it where I work :(   I think I need to start hinting with all
the Redhat 9 Demo Cds I have in my appartment.

Geee... I have a strange feeling its some stupid setting that the
"windows" admin has been setting laptops up with, I finally had her
fedex me a laptop that she had just setup so I can check inter-op
correctly.
