[Fedora-directory-users] Going insane (can't logon from Windows)

[Mont Rothstein]

I have Fedora Directory Server (1.0.4) running on a Red Hat Linux (RHEL 4)
with Samba (3.0.10-1.4E.12.2).

I have a Windows XP box that I have successfully joined to the domain.

When I go to login with a domain user I get the following error:

"Windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domain controller
is down or otherwise unavailable, or because your computer account was not
found."

In the Windows system event log there is the following entry:

"Event Type:    Error
Event Source:    NETLOGON
Event Category:    None
Event ID:    3210
Date:        6/12/2007
Time:        10:08:02 AM
User:        N/A
Computer:    WINXP-CLEAN
Description:
This computer could not authenticate with \\RHEL-CLEAN2, a Windows domain
controller for domain FORAYADAMS2, and therefore this computer might deny
logon requests. This inability to authenticate might be caused by another
computer on the same network using the same name or the password for this
computer account is not recognized. If this message appears again, contact
your system administrator.

The only thing in smb.log is:

[2007/06/12 11:41:09, 0] lib/util_sock.c:get_peer_addr(1000)
  getpeername failed. Error was Transport endpoint is not connected

The only thing in the machine's samba log is:

[2007/06/12 11:41:09, 0] lib/util_sock.c:get_peer_addr(1000)
  getpeername failed. Error was Transport endpoint is not connected
[2007/06/12 11:41:09, 0] lib/util_sock.c:write_socket_data(430)
  write_socket_data: write failure. Error = Connection reset by peer
[2007/06/12 11:41:09, 0] lib/util_sock.c:write_socket(455)
  write_socket: Error writing 4 bytes to socket 24: ERRNO = Connection reset
by peer
[2007/06/12 11:41:09, 0] lib/util_sock.c:send_smb(647)
  Error writing 4 bytes to client. -1. (Connection reset by peer)


There is nothing in the Fedora log near to when the workstation boots or the
user tries to login.

I can connect to a share on the server from the Windows computer, when
logged in as a local user, using "net view" or entering the path directly
(\\rhel-clean2\sharename\).

I can ping the server from the workstation and vis-a-versa.

I've explicitly added the workstation to the forward and reverse DNS zone
files.

The time of the server and workstation is less than 5 min apart.

I have explicitly added the linux server as a WINS server on the Windows box
(just in case).

When I lookup the Windows system error on Google at I get stuff about the
machine's password being out of sync or various things about group policies
for encryption and such.  I tried turning off all of the related group
policies with no effect.


I am pulling my hair out trying to figure this out.  Any and all help is
appreciated.

Thanks,
-Mont
