I did some more tests and this is what i learned:
- I did a similar setup in our lab, also with a w2k server (ads in mixed mode), a firewall (same type as in the "real world" scenario), and identical linux/samba setup
- That lab-setup works just fine, so it is not a compilation issue or errors in the samba.conf
- exactly the same smb.conf/krb5.conf on the "real world" system gives the same error as before. The only thing i changed is the name of ads, realm and password-server.
So it looks like either a problem with the firewall between the samba server and the windows dc, or some problem with the dc itself. I rather doubt that the problem is on the firewall side, both lab and real world firewall are the same model, same software, and both have all ip traffic between samba and dc permitted.
Does anyone have an idea what and where i can check on the windows side? Its a windows 2000 server, servicepack 4, english installation... nothing fancy...
Some more research. Removing the firewall doesnt change anything, so i dont think the firewall is causing my problem. I re-checked the windows server, and saw its a SP3 box, my lab-Server had sp4. I'll check again with an sp3 lab-server.
But so far, i'm still stuck with the following error:
root# net rpc join -U administrator -w DOMAIN -S WINDOWS-DC

Error domain join verification (reused connection): STATUS_BUFFER_OVERFLOW
Unable to join domain DOMAIN.
Joining with "net ads join..." works, but then wbinfo fails again.
