The following error occurred attempting to join the domain "secret": The semaphore timeout period has expired. What does this mean? I change our password because I can not connect this win2000 client to our domain. So I needed to change the password. Is the command smbpasswd -w <secret password> correct? Because bad password and bad username appears that's why I changed the password. ???
