a slight change in the log entries now, as below. I don't know why (I don't think I've changed anything), but there is an extra log entry showing the host is in the passdb, but getpwnam() is failing. However, the machine name is definitely in /etc/passwd. Can anyone cast any light on this appar

What samba version? After you login from Win 7 can you actually open and save files? It does seem like it is trying to reauthenticate as an active directory client. Maybe config samba to only listen on port 139 and not 445 ("smb ports" in smb.conf.)That might force the Win 7 client to t
