Hello all, Could anyone tell me why I would get this error when I try to log a WinXP pro machine onto my samba domain? "windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domain controller is down or otherwise unavailable, or because your computer account was not found." Thanks all... __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo! DSL - Now only $29.95 per month! http://sbc.yahoo.com

Did you reset the windows registry keys? [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameter s] requiresignorseal = 0 signsecurechannel = 0 This is required for win XP.
