Above is a sample of logs from the "messages" log file. We have a network with Windows XP systems (SP2) and patched for all critical updates.
The distribution of Linux we run is Red Hat Enterprise ES 4.0. The samba server has been configured as a domain controller (without LDAP). Of late we have observed that Windows XP client systems are posing problems while logging on to the domain. After entering the username and password, some client systems get stuck at the stage of "Loading Personal profile" and do not proceed further. Of course, we have figured a way out by unplugging the network cord and logging on and then connecting the cord so that the server can be accessed.
Can someone provide a hint or a solution to solve this problem?
