Victor,
I just spent hours searching for the solution to the same problem you
are having using samba version 3.0.25b after an upgrade from version
3.0.10. the resolution for me was posted by Volker Lendecke:
"> Make sure that the fully qualified domain name and your host name

My /etc/hosts had an alias that made hostname & hostname -r return the
same value.
broken:
127.0.0.1 zelda localhost.localdomain localhost
172.16.1.29 zelda.ournetwork.org zelda
Works:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
172.16.1.29 zelda.ournetwork.org zelda
Hope this helps

Subject: [Samba] samba and active directory on win 2003
I use samba Version 3.0.25b-1.el5_1.4.
When I try to join the domain adtest.ro I receive the following error:
[root@zimbra samba]# net ads join -U Administrator
Administrator's password:
Using short domain name -- ADTEST
Failed to set servicePrincipalNames. Please ensure that
the DNS domain of this server matches the AD domain,
Or rejoin with using Domain Admin credentials.
Deleted account for 'ZIMBRA' in realm 'ADTEST.RO'
Failed to join domain: Type or value exists
In the process of joining the domain samba refers to
ADTEST-U5HTDLBY.ADTEST.RO instead adtest.ro.
I don't know why but I belive this is the cause of the problem.
hosts.conf contain this:
192.168.1.1 adtest.ro ADTEST-U5HTDLBY.ADTEST.RO
Kerberos authentication is ok:
"kinit Administrator@ADTEST.RO
Password for Administrator@ADTEST.RO: " returns no error.
samba.conf contains this configuration:
[global]
workgroup = ADTEST
realm = ADTEST.RO
password server = ADTEST-U5HTDLBY.ADTEST.RO
preferred master = no
server string = Linux Test Machine
security = ADS

winbind nested groups = Yes
winbind separator = +
