samba - May 2009 - domain admin cannot admin pc

Hi all,

My env;
Centos 5.3
Samba 3.0.33
Samba PDC using LDAP backend.

Problem;
I can join the XP box to my Samba domain (called DOMAIN) using the  
root user and pass.

But after rebooting and logging into that XP box as root, I can not  
admin the box and am treated as a regular user.

Commands and results;
net rpc group members "Domain Admins"

DOMAIN\root


C:\>net localgroup Administrators
Alias name     Administrators
Comment        Administrators have complete and unrestricted access to  
the computer/domain

Members

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Administrator
DOMAIN\Domain Admins

getent group
Domain Admins:*:512:root
**There is more groups but I felt the above line was relevant.

I've combed google but found that I shouldn't have a problem.
Any ideas?

On that XP computer, add the Domain Admin to the "Administrators"
group.

Hi,

If you mean the Domain Admin group, its already there and was added  
upon joining the domain.
