Just to make it clear that its not normal a system really need to have accounts created that way. I dont think is a good idea to call a workaround used on a system that someone didnt got it working properly (who knows why) as a solution, samba works very fine creating workstation accounts automatically when joining the clients and can even use accounts other than root trough privileges to join the client.

The list has several posts about that and the samba documentation shows how to do that automatically and manually.

But anyway if the user that asked simply said that its fine for him that way, and dropped the thread ...

Regards.

Great!!!

I have created a couple of machine accounts through the LAM utility and I
have eventually been able to join the domain.

Thank you very much for your help.

I have had the same problem with a similar setup for at least 3 years.
My solution is to create the account for the windows workstation
either via the smbldap-useradd and the linux useradd commands or a gui
wizard that does this for me. I currently use ldap-account-manager
http://lam.sourceforge.net/ for as well as user management. And then
after the account is created the windows add to domain boxes work.
