I have an annoying problem with my new (and first) SAMBA PDC deployment. Valid users are being connected to the root directory "/" of my server as nobody.

Day 2 of my adventure into Samba. Having had such success with workgroup-based Samba, it was time to try Samba as a PDC. Unfortunately, it got cut short very quickly because I am not able to log into the domain from the XP client.
