Try adding the Samba server to the NT4 Domain first. Is the NT4 server also a WINS server? If so, add that info to the smb.conf
wins server = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx name resolve order = wins lmhosts host bcast Put the NT4 server info into /etc/lmhosts and /etc/hosts xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx NT4SERVER restart Samba and see if you can join the domain now.
