samba server is not connecting as a domain from windows XP

[mummaneni]

hai
every body

i am trying to connect the windows XP machine to samba domain
while giving the username and password it is displaying the following message



"The following error occured attempting to join the domain "abc.com"

Access is denied.

1: Did you create a linux user ? passwd -a username
2: Did you add the linux user to the smb user? smbpasswd -a username
3: Did you log in on xp and log in to the samba server with the username
and the password of the smb user?
Did you config the smb.conf to allow the windos xp lan to access samba?

[mummaneni]

thank you

i added the sambauser with smbpasswd -a username

and also i logged into samba server with the username and password


But I don't know how to give the access to connect the XP to samba in smb.conf file

I think the last one is the error which i am doing

please give me the suggestion.

thanks
inadvance

O.K.
Try to add this line to the global section

hosts allow = 195.100.100. 127.

hai everyone

i configured the samba server
i am able to connect the windows 2000 and xp machine to that samba as domain.

Now the problem is while logging from windows machine, to the samba domain i am getting the following error message

Windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domain controller is down or oterwise unavailable, or because your computer account was not found. Please try again later, If this message continues to appear, contact your system administrator for assistance.

But i am successfully logging from windows 2000 professional to the samba.

what is the problem.
