Hi John, have a look here

htm
l#id2523628 especially the notes toward the end about accessing a 2K3 =
PDC.=20

Make the Workgroup setting in smb.conf the name of your AD domain. My =
guess
is that if the PDC has been reinstalled its System ID (SID) will have
changed so, even though the AD domain name may the same, the underlying =
SID
that it now translates to is different. If it was a member of the domain
before I expect that rejoining the Samba box to the domain will help. =
Was
the AD always 2K3? or 2K before. That's where the note at the end of =
that
link might help.=20
