I am using samba as a PDC on linux. It works fine with encrypted

as PDC ?
Not for NT or Win2k. Only Win9X can have 'domain logons' without encrypted passwords.
Running with plaintext passwords is a security risk, and is no longer tested by MS. This means that there are a number of known client bugs - bugs that just 'go away' when you enable encrypted passwords.
(and you need to apply the registry patch).
