samba - May 2004 - do I have to have Domain Name for LDAP

Do I have to have a domain name called EAGLES.com in order to have LDAP working
with Samba 3.0 as my PDC?
 
This is from my "slapd.conf"
suffix "dc=EAGLES,dc=com"
rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=EAGLES,dc=com"
 
as I try to login from windows 95, I get the following message in the log file. 
 
[2004/05/20 01:11:44, 1] lib/smbldap.c:smbldap_retry_open(888)
  Connection to LDAP Server failed for the 1 try!
[2004/05/20 01:11:44, 0] lib/smbldap.c:smbldap_search_suffix(1075)
  smbldap_search_suffix: Problem during the LDAP search: (unknown) (Time limit
exceeded)

Anybody has any idea why?
 
Thanks,

Nope.  Any naming context is fine.

Check for broken DNS setups or something else that
would cause the LDAP server to hang.  Doesn't appear
to be a Samba issue.
