<pre wrap="">XP is SP2 and that IBM tute is the very one I followed word for word.
Windows just keeps telling me that it can't find the domain server.

Hi Chris<br>
<br>
Are you still having problems with it or have you sorted it out?<br>
<br>
The "signorseal" hack/patch/registry settings were definitely involved
last time I did this.<br>
<br>
Also I had one situation were nothing worked even after I checked,
patched and tweaked everything, so eventually I formatted the Windows
PC and tried again (connecting to the domain before doing ANYTHING else
with it and it went first time!!!<br>
<br>
I have what the guys at PC-PHIX considered "the ultimate guide" for
connecting and Windows PC to a Samba based domain, but unfortunately it
is a couple of years old and I cannot locate anything but a printed
copy for some reason. It would mean some work to re-compile it in a
usable format and send it on, but I will do if you are still stuck...<br>
<br>
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the F&R works though.
Therefore, I would also suggest grabbing a spare hard drive, swapping
it in to one of the boxes, setting up XP, connecting it and then see if
it doesn't go...<br>
<br>
If it does, then you know that your method is solid. If it doesn't
then you can troubleshoot this clean installation until it is done.<br>
