I get similar errors when I have dummy shares (ie shares in smb.conf that point 
to non-existent directories), check that too.

However if using as PDC, the most common situation is when the samba server is 
not in the DNS/WINS for given machine. 

If it is standalone, then make sure there is no AD server in the same 
workgroup: it can kick out the samba server as not trusted for the 
domain/workgroup. You can join it into the AD as member server to fix this, and 
if the AD server is also dns server, it will take care of that too.

All said and done, read the docs. It seems like you are missing a part of the 
network planning.

This is not normal with samba. Perhaps something is wrong with either
your permissions on the share or your network browsing (WINS, DNS or
lmhosts).
