Samba PDC and Win2000


I have an issue I need help with

I have a RedHat ES 3.0 Samba server setup and running as a PDC
Testparm shows no problems with the smb.conf file and the system
is working fine by itself.
I am able to logon to the domain from a Win98 system and have the
login script properly.
The problem is with connecting from Win2000. I can connect and access the
shares from windows explorer, I just can't get the Win2000 system
to join the domain so the login script will run. Below is my smb.conf file
with the share info edited out. Also, for security reasons I have made the
shares not browsable and am connecting to the shares via "net use"
within the login scripts.
Once again even though I can get to the shares from both Win98 and
Win2000 the domain access and the login script work in Win98 and not
in Win2000.

[global]
workgroup = ptti-eng
netbios name = Inventor
server string = Inventor
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY, IPTOS_LOWDELAY, SO_KEEPALIVE, SO_SNDBUF=14596, SO_RCVBUF=14596

domain logons = yes
domain master = yes
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50

os level = 64 ; ensure this machine consulted 1st regarding current browse list
preferred master = yes
local master = yes
domain master = yes

logon drive = G:\
logon home = /ptti-eng/users/%U
logon path = /ptti-eng/users/profiles/%U
logon script = startup.bat
username map = /etc/samba/users.map

preserve case = yes
short preserve case = yes
case sensitive = no

unix password sync = yes
pam password change = yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g machines -s /bin/false -M %u
add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 100 -s /bin/false -M %u

#GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

[profiles]
comment = users' profile directories
path = /ptti-eng/login/profiles
read only = no
browseable = no
create mask = 0600 ; rwx-xxx-xxx only the user can read/write files
directory mask = 0700 ; rwx-xxx-xxx directories must be executable if they are to be navigated

[NETLOGON]
# required for Windows authentication
path = /ptti-eng/login/%G
read only = yes
browseable = no

[homes]
# 'logon drive' won't work without this section
path = /ptti-eng/users/%U
read only = no
browseable = no
public = no
create mode = 0700

I would really appreciate any help you can give me with this issue.
I will certainly start looking into LDAP.
Thank you in advance for whatever help you can provide
