Hi Kevin,

One fairly common cause of this (where otherwise it was working OK
before) is that system time is out of sync between the Samba server and
the Windows DC.

Had this yesterday, where NTP had inexplicably stopped on the Samba server.

Otherwise various 'net ads' commands on the Samba server to test the
join to the domain.

HTH,

LS
