Corey Hart asked me (off-list) to check the permissions on the spool 
directory.  They are:

	$ ls -ld /var/local/samba/spool/
drwxrwxrwt2 root nogroup  4096 Aug  7 13:24 
/var/local/samba/spool/

(This is based on advice to make a separate spool directory, with the 
same permissions as /tmp has.)

Some other points that may be relevant:

At one point I was using "security = ads" in an attempt to get things 
working; however, the (brief) success was had with "security = 
domain".  I'm still seeing krb5 messages though; is it possible to 
authenticate against a Win2000 Active Directory domain, in "mixed" 
mode, without using kerberos?

I'm using winbindd via PAM, and set up /etc/pam.d/login and 
/etc/pam.d/samba such that authentication appears to be working.  I'm 
happy to be told that this may be affecting it, if only someone can 
help me diagnose it.

OMFG.  The spool directory Samba was looking for was not the same as 
the directory I created.  Correct that error, and it's all fine now.

Thank you to the samba list, and Corey Hart in particular, for 
assisting me in seeing what was right in front of my face :-)

Well -- but your "path" in smb.conf points to "/var/local/spool/samba"
and *not* "/var/local/samba/spool/"
(This is based on advice to make a separate spool directory, with the 
same permissions as /tmp has.)

Cheers,
Kurt
