Answering my own post.....  Secrets.tdb gets created but for some reason in
/var/lib/samba/.

The logs repeatedly show this:
[2005/12/30 15:00:38, 1] smbd/sesssetup.c:reply_spnego_kerberos(180)
  Failed to verify incoming ticket!

Jerry posted a comment about this here, to him it seems that secrets.tdb was
not found:
http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2004-August/091388.html

He asked what does smbd -b | grep PRIVATE  show.  For me this is it:

   PRIVATE_DIR: /etc/samba

So, what creates secrets.tdb when you net ads join?  I ask as I am running
the Samba teams .debs for Sarge on a Ubuntu-server box.  Would there be a
mismatch because of this or has Simo, the samba package maintainer made a
tiny boo-boo?  I will create a symlink to get around the problem.  But will
an updated package change this and cause me difficulties?
