I cannot join my WinXP workstation computers to the Samba domain. Using the Computer Name / Change on the XP computer gives me an error saying that the username or password is incorrect - except very occasionally when it works although I do nothing different!

I am using Samba PDC with OpenLDAP2 and smbldap-tools. As part of my logon.bat, I call a script called ifmember.exe. This script can list out the groups a user is a member of. It is reporting that my root user is a member of the group 'engr.' I don't know if this is a bug with ifmember.exe or if it's an issue in Samba or in LDAP. Here is some relevant data:

Hello everyone, I am operating a migration of samba from 3.0.24 (mysql passdb backend) to 3.5.6 (openldap passdb), samba working as a domain controller (PDC) and file share. The main challenge is to provide a seamless migration for users. For this new version, I am using smbldap-tools 0.9.6, nss_ldap, openldap 2.4. Everything run on FreeBSD 8.2.

I have a Samba PDC and a file server (domain member). They are both running CentOS 4, with Samba3-3.0.24-30 and LDAP 2.3 (on PDC).
