Our XP clients were having problems getting a Samba share. The error message
was "The account is not authorized to log on from this station". This
problem started when we added the samba server to the active directory
(host/hostname principal). It looks like the XP client checks the active
directory for the hostname and since it is there thinks it's a w2k server
and then tries to use Kerberos to authenticate.
Has anyone else experienced this or found a way to get around it? One thing
that does work is to use the IP address or a DNS alias for the samba server
on the XP client.
