samba - Nov 2004 - User Administrator in passdb, but getpwnam() fails when trying to add XP machine to smb/ldap domain

Hi all 

I've been trying to get this sorted out for a day now, 

I have done the following: 

Followed the howto at http://samba.idealx.org/smbldap-howto.en.html
Changed the reg settings in XP
added the computer to ldap
added administrator to ldap

when I try to add the computer using the settings in XP, when prompted with
username and password I use the administrator and password set preveiosly.

this results in failure and log reports: 

[2004/11/17 17:59:25, 1] auth/auth_util.c:make_server_info_sam(822)
  User Administrator in passdb, but getpwnam() fails!

I've searched google and the list for possible options, but I've not yet
found one that solves this problem.

Any suggestions ? 

Thanks

Try configuring nss_ldap.
