samba as a domain controler?

Hi all. I'm trying to set up samba as a domain controler for a couple if 
winblows boxes. I have the following in my smb.conf which I think should 
do the trick:
[global]
        workgroup = LAN
        netbios name = H14ME
        server string = Linux Dns/SMBServer
        encrypt passwords = Yes
        update encrypted = Yes
        log level = 3
        log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
        domain logons = Yes
        preferred master = Yes
        domain master = Yes
        dns proxy = No
        wins support = Yes
 But whenever I try to login from the winblows box it says that the 
password is invalid or the domain server denies access or something like 
that. it doesn't seem to want to connect. does anyone have this setup? 
bc I think this should work fine but it's not.
no log messages get written to the logfiles so I dont even think windows 
is trying to connect.

Yup there are a couple of things you are missing. First, set osslevel
to 64, and make sure to set "adduserscript" to a valid program for
adding users. Also, use smbpasswd to add an account for root. I have
a setup like this and it works just fine. You may need to do nbtstat
- -R on the Windows machines before attempting to join them to the
domain.

scratch that...I figured out I forgot to add the user to samba so I 
couldn't log in.
