Just a note for the archives.

This is a bug in Samba 2.2, it returns an incorrect error code.  It
should give back a boring 'access denied'.  However given that, this
message means that you don't have a machine account yet - you will
either need to add one with smbpasswd -m, or setup (as per the HOWTO) to
add the machine on the fly.
