samba - Apr 2005 - Unable to get PDC to authenticate id for access

I am in the process of upgrading Samba from version 3.0.1 to 3.0.14a.  The AIX
team applied maintenance that sent the samba processes into some sort of loop
which was impacting the machines.  We were able to upgrade one of the unix
servers with no issues but I cannot get the other one to work.  We have 3 unix
machines with samba that are working properly within this domain (the other 2
are still at 3.0.1 and did not have the AIX maintenance applied) but one of them
is causing me problems.  Here is a small excerpt from the log:

  connect_to_domain_password_server: unable to setup the NETLOGON credentials to

  check_ntlm_password:  Authentication for user [spincia] -> [spincia] FAILED
with error NT_STATUS_TRUSTED_RELATIONSHIP_FAILURE

It appears to block access to the NT machine to authenticate the ID.

I have re-joined the domain multiple times with no luck.

It is configured to use security = domain and use NT authentication.  We have
been successfully using Samba with this config for a few years and this is the
first time
we are running out of ideas to get around this problem.

Any ideas to assist in troubleshooting this issue would be greatly appreciated.
