[Samba] unable to get Windows XP to join domain using BDC

Tue, 12 Feb 2008 10:11:10 -0800

I have a domain named ADAMSTEST with the LDAP/PDC being gomer.mdah.state.ms.us ip 10.8.3.37 and the BDC bldg2.mdah.state.ms.us ip 10.8.7.2. nss_ldap is working, i can ssh in to both servers fine. I'm trying to have a Windows XP named domain2 with ip 10.8.7.254 join the domain using the WINS server of 10.8.7.2 in the network tcp/ip settings. So it should be able to join the domain by authenticating with the BDC, right? But when I go to my computer properties, computer name, and put it in it in the domain ADAMSTEST, I get the error: 

the following error occurred attempting to join the domain "ADAMSTEST":
the specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted.
bldg2 is in the domain, net rpc join -U root%password succeeded, and net rpc info works, and so does net getdomainsid: 

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# net rpc info

and domain2 has a machine account in ldap:

from the logs of trying to join the domain:

so why can't my XP computer join the domain using the BDC?
