Jim, -Try adding the Samba server to the NT4 Domain first. Response: The samba server has already been added to the NT domain.
-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 Response: The NT server is not functioning as a WINS server. The /etc/hosts and /etc/lmhosts already have the entry for the NT server. The server can also resolve the NTSERVER_NAME using DNS. I also used rpcclient to see if there any connection problems, and it was able to connect just fine to the NTSERVER. Thorougly confused. Any other ideas?
