unable to add win2 pro to samba domain

[sonun]

Though I am able to map the network drive from the samba share on the win2k machine.
When I go through the rigous of adding it to the domain, it said wrong account for user"root". I was trying to add the win2k machine to the domain as user root which is defined in /etc/samba/smbpasswd.
Also I have another smb server. Most machines are laready a part of that domain. How do I get those machines to be part of this bew samba domain now. Simplay copy the smbpasswd file.
But before that I have to have to be able to add one machine to the new domain atleast. I can add new samba users and I cna use those accounts to map drives to the win2k machine but................
Please advise ...

ok, now I can get win2k blokes to be a part of the samba domain. Problems unsolved remain,
I have another smb server. Most machines are laready a part of that domain. How do I get those machines to be part of this bew samba domain now. Simplay copy the smbpasswd file ??
For some reason that dont seem to work. I can map network drives using copied usernames, but I cant login into the samba domain with the copied usernames !! (What I mean is that instaed of having each user come and create a login again, I kinda thought I will cheat and copy the smbpasswd containing the username/password onto the other server so that those users will be able to log into the new samba domain).
Please advise ....
