samba - Oct 2005 - XP Join Problem

I've got a configuration like this working fine.  I followed the 'Making
User's Happy' section in the Samba Documentation collection.  Try doing
a:

root#:> smbclient -U% -L FASITET 

to see if the server can see itself.  The one thing that stands out to me in you
smb.conf file is that you don't have netbios name setting.  Try this then
look at your /var/log/samba/log.nmbd to see if you see a domain controller
announcement message.

Hi and thanks for the replay.


here is my output from the command:

fileserver log/samba# smbclient -U% -L FASITET
