Thanks for the reply. I have had problem with using
host/machine.domain.com@REALM principal when I had both Samba and Unix
services use the Windows 2000 KDC.

I will try to modify the principal name and see if it works. I will post my
results in here.

I created it with OpenLDAP's ldapmodify after I joined the machine to the
domain. An LDIF like this should work:

  dn: CN=machine_name,CN=Computers,DC=win,DC=hut,DC=fi
  changetype: modify
  add: servicePrincipalName
  servicePrincipalName: CIFS/machine.example.com

I did not have a chance to test this yet, all our clients are currently
XP. I will do this any day now.

Nope, not at this moment.

I will be doing some comparative traces, as was suggested in another post.
I'll post the results here as well, in case someone is interested.
