I have been working my way through the fault tree specified above, and
have been passing all the tests till I reached the point called TESTING
CONNECTIONS WITH SMBCLIENT

Here is the session transcript


[root at SRVFS-01 samba]# smbclient //srvfs-01/Pictures
Password:
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_PIPE_NOT_AVAILABLE


Here is the smb.log from the relevant session (log level 3)


 [2005/05/12 13:07:22, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(312)
  check_ntlm_password:  Authentication for user [root] -> [root] FAILED
with error NT_STATUS_PIPE_NOT_AVAILABLE
[2005/05/12 13:07:22, 2] smbd/server.c:exit_server(571)
  Closing connections
[2005/05/12 13:07:31, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(312)
  check_ntlm_password:  Authentication for user [root] -> [root] FAILED
with error NT_STATUS_PIPE_NOT_AVAILABLE
[2005/05/12 13:07:31, 2] smbd/server.c:exit_server(571)
  Closing connections
[2005/05/12 13:10:50, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(312)
  check_ntlm_password:  Authentication for user [root] -> [root] FAILED
with error NT_STATUS_PIPE_NOT_AVAILABLE
[2005/05/12 13:10:50, 2] smbd/server.c:exit_server(571)
  Closing connections


If I had to guess, there is a problem with samba authenticating against
the domain, but that does not make sense, because several other servers
are authenticating against the same domain without any trouble

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
