I'll ask again, since its been a few days.

Quick Summary:
I am trying to join some Win2k (Service Pack 4) machines to a NT4 style domain with a Samba PDC. One machine successfully joins the Samba domain. One fails.


Current configuration:
SambaPDC:
- FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE
- Samba 2.2.8a (from binary package)
Host1 (Silv):
- Windows 2000 SP4 (5.00.2195)
Host2 (Plaid):
- Windows 2000 SP4 (5.00.2195)
All machines are on the same network switch.
There are no other machines on the switch.
All connections are 100/Full Duplex..
All machines are in the 192.168.x.y subnet
SambaPDC is is running bind9 with a fake zone (.error) for all machines and forwards all other DNS queries.
All machines use SambaPDC for DNS resolution.
Digital Sign'n'Seal is disabled on both client machines.


smb.conf:
  [global]
     workgroup = SAMBAPDC
     hosts allow = 192.168.
     log file = /var/log/log.%m
     log level = 2
     max log size = 50000
     security = user
     encrypt passwords = yes
     smb passwd file = /usr/local/private/smbpasswd
     domain master = yes
     preferred master = yes
     domain logons = yes

Each machine has a user account (silv$, plaid$) in the passwd/master.passwd files. Each machine has an account in the smbpasswd file, created with 'smbpasswd -a -m [machine name]'. When I add 'silv' to the domain and reboot, I can log in to the domain. When I add 'plaid' to the domain and reboot, I cannot log in to the domain. I get the following error: "The system cannot log you on to the domain because the system's computer accout in the domain is missing or the password is incorrect." I should stress that at no point during the process of adding 'plaid' to the domain did the I get an error on 'plaid'. On SambaPDC, in the logfile for plaid, 'log.plaid', I see these two errors:

>[2004/02/14 17:39:11, 2] rpc_parse/parse_samr.c:samr_io_userinfo_ctr(6285)
> samr_io_userinfo_ctr: unknown switch level 0x1a
>[2004/02/14 17:39:11, 0] rpc_server/srv_samr.c:api_samr_set_userinfo(670)
> api_samr_set_userinfo: Unable to unmarshall SAMR_Q_SET_USERINFO.


I am at a loss. 'Silv' and 'plaid' should not be acting differently here. Can anyone suggest any courses of further investigation?

Also, sometimes when I try to log in to 'Silv', it seems to have developed the same error as 'Plaid'. When I remove and add it back to the domain, however, it functions properly for while, before screwing up again.

Thanks,

L.R.Rodriguez
