Joining a machine to the domain will not work.

Failure message is:

group RID
Comment 1 John H Terpstra (mail address dead( 2003-05-08 10:57:47 UTC 
Fixed type.

Also, please note that when I removed the passdb.tdb file and started with a
fresh file the problem went away.

It seems this may be a bug that is triggered by a change in file format.
If so, then this needs to be documented.

Please confirm if a passdb.tdb file format change has been made so I can update
the HOWTO. It should then also go into the WHATSNEW.
Comment 2 Gerald (Jerry) Carter (dead mail address) 2003-05-12 10:51:42 UTC 
works with a fresh passdb.tdb.  File format changes only needed 
to be worried about when made to released versions.
Nothing to do here.
