[svlug] Samba error

Here's one which is vexing me mightily.  I have a Samba server
(3.0.14a-Debian) that works perfectly in my Active Directory network.  I
have another (essentially a duplicate, different hostname of course)
that does not.

From the syslog of the failing machine (while attempting to connect a
Windows PC to a share):

From the log.<user>:

  make_server_info_info3: pdb_init_sam failed! 


The share doesn't appear while browsing, and directly trying to mount 
\\server\share brings up a login prompt which always fails, producing
this extra bit in syslog:

Aug  2 15:04:53 localhost nss_wins[13920]:   Username <domain>\<pcname>
is invalid on this system  

Interesting that the PC name is used here (?)

I've tried Googling to no avail; just other people asking the same
question without any answers being posted.

Any ideas?
