Fellow samba dancers,

        Before I lose it, and teach our server to fly, I think it best if I ask 
the experts.

        THE SETUP: FreeBSD 7.0-Release, i386 platform (Proliant ML530 to be 
exact), Samba version 3.0.31,1. Windows domain based on Windows 2000 Advanced 
Server, with mixed NT-style and Active Directory style security. Domain name is 
FREEDOM_RIDGE, two active-directory domain controllers called haku and chihiro 
(bonus points if you get the movie reference). ;-)

        WHAT I'VE DONE: testparm says the config file is fine, and I -think- 
I've managed to join our existing domain (there was no error from the 'net 
join' NT4-style command -- quite the contrary. It confirmed that the domain was 
joined). Shares are established, dump of config file available on request.

        I've also used pdbedit -a -u (insert username here) to add myself into 
the tdbsam database, and that seemed to work OK.

        THE PROBLEM: I can't connect to any shares, and I keep seeing samba 
core-dump errors in /var/log/samba/log.smbd.

        When I try connecting to a share from one of our Windows 2000 pro 
systems, it sits for about 30 seconds, and then I get an error box which says 
(among other things) that it could not read configuration information from the 
domain controller.

        Even more worrisome is this stuff from log.smbd. I get it every time I 
try to access a share.

        Any thoughts? Granted that I would, at some point, like to implement 
full active-directory membership, the thought of diving into Windows-side 
Kerberos is not attractive at this time.

        Thanks.
