Good news: I've gotten the server to join, and even have some idea of the source of the trouble. The server was joined to an AD realm initially, and we were trying to transition directly to the Samba domain. If I parted from the AD realm first and rebooted, I was then able to join the domain. When parting the AD realm, Win2K did give a warning that it failed to delete the machine account, but this was non-fatal. I'm wondering if this was the real cause of the failure before, in which case the network trace I sent you probably wouldn't be particularly useful. Is there any concerted effort to document such issues, where I might forward this hint? -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
