Ok guys, I finally got the Samba PDC up and running (almost like it should be) the first of my small problems is that when opening a web browser on the XP box it will instantly find the Resolved Name however then pause for 30seconds then go to the site.. On the Linux box it is instantaneous like it should be. Both boxes are on a simple 4 port router atm.. Each pulls a DNS from the cable company on its own, and connects directly to the internet not through the pdc. I have tried just about everything,, Domain browsing within my network does not have this problem.. Only on the XP box after which it started to connect to the DC
