It is listed somewhere not sure where but you need to edit the windows
registry to allow xp to join a samba controlled domain
you have a couple of options available to you to do this they are
Option 1: Manual registry editing
Start Regedit, navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetLogon\Parameters
and change
"RequireSignOrSeal"=dword:00000001
to
"RequireSignOrSeal"=dword:00000000
Option 2: The only way Microsoft advocate changing this setting
1. Use Control Panel to open Local Security Policy in the
Administrative Tools.
2. Navigate to Local Policies / Security Options.
3. Double-click Domain Member:Digitally encrypt or sign secure
channel data (always).
4. Press Disabled.
5. Press Apply and OK.
Option #3: registry file
Save the followig text to requiresignorseal.reg and then right
click->Merge
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters]
"requiresignorseal"=dword:00000000
This file can be found in the docs/Registry directory of the Samba 2.2.2
source distribution as WinXP_SignOrSeal.reg.
