After wrestling with this for a while I did the following, per Gerald's 
suggestion here or in another thread:
sudo apt-get remove likewise-open
sudo dpkg --purge likewise-open
rebooted
sudo apt-get install likewise-open

I don't know whether it matters or not but I did use the domainjoin-cli
instead of the gui this time.  It worked.  I got joined.  I don't think
it was the gui.  I think there was an underlying setting that didn't get
updated in likewise-open until I completely removed it and started over.

I can authenticate now on my domain BUT I cannot get in to GDM.  It gives me an 
errror with two things, maybe related to ownership.
"Could not update ICEauthority file 
/home/likewise-open/MYDOMAIN/username/.ICEauthority
also
Problem configuring server (/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited 
with status 256)

Based on googling I think it is an ownership issue for these files.  I
have tried changing ownership.  None of the posts I have seen are
dealing with domain users, so that extra level of the domain in the
username makes it a bit more complicated.

Any brilliant ideas?
