Sort of, yes! But still can't join. The error is different now: The account used is a computer account. Use your global user account or local user account to access this server. I obviously don't understand this too well, because Win9x PCs don't come up with the 3 or 4 different dialogs XP does. Lets say Samba is set up as a PDC. It is called 'SERVER' (yes, I'm the brainbox who selected that name). It's NETBIOS domain is 'DEKKERS'. Linux AND samba both have an account 'edward' (me). In Win9x, that's all I need. I fill in username edward, the password, domain of DEKKERS and voila! The login script runs and all is good. (Tested on another PC) In XP, I go to the Computer Name tab. Currently my machine name is EDWARDP4, and is joined to WORKGROUP DEKKERS. If I Click 'Change', then select domain and fill in 'DEKKERS', it asks me for username and password. I fill in the above. I get bunkus: 'Access is denied'. If I try to go the other way by clicking on Network ID, select business network with a domain, username edward, password, and DEKKERS as the domain, it comes up and asks for computer name and domain. Here I'm not sure. I've tried different things, but if I type in EDWARD and DEKKERS again, it asks me for the username, password and DOMAIN AGAIN. I fill these in again and get that global user account error. Do I need to set up a computer account on that domain perhaps?
