Hi This has keeping me up for days now and I can't seem to find a solution in the various wikis, howtos and whatsoevers, so here's the plot: I have a W2K3 R2 x64 Domaincontroller (VM on vSphere4) and a CentOS 5.4 x64 fileserver (also a VM on vSphere4, same ESX-host), running Samba 3.0.33-3.15.el5_4.1 (rpm installation out of the box).
