Samba 3.0.14 on Solaris 10 issues

Hello All,

I am facing a wierd problem with the Samba 3.0.14a on Solaris 10 and CUPS (1.1.12) printing.
First of all am not sure if this combination works well. If someone could throw some light, it would be of great help.

Samba is setup with security=server, and it is currently a member of the NT4.0 Domain.
When I use the smbstatus command, I get the following error message, even though the clients are connected.

*******
sessionid.tdb not initialised
/var/log/samba/lock/connections.tdb not initialised
This is normal if an SMB client has never connected to your server.
Failed to open byte range locking database
ERROR: Failed to initialise locking database
Can't initialise locking module - exiting
*********

The permissions on the lock directory seems fine.
Looks like something is broken. The files sessionid.tdb and connections.tdb, don't seem to be exisiting on the server at all.

Has anyone come accross this problem. Any help is most appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

masktest - Find differences in wildcard matching between Samba's implementation and that of a remote server. SYNOPSIS
masktest {//server/share} [-U user%pass] [-d debuglevel] [-W workgroup] [-n numloops] [-s seed] [-a] [-E] [-M max protocol] [-f filechars] [-m maskchars] [-v] DESCRIPTION
masktest is a utility for detecting differences in behaviour between Samba's own implementation and that of a remote server. It will run generate random filenames/masks and check if these match the same files they do on the remote file as they do on the local server. It will display any differences it finds. This utility is used by the Samba team to find differences in behaviour between Samba and Windows servers. OPTIONS
-U user%pass Specify the user and password to use when logging on on the shares. This parameter can be specified twice (once for the first server, once for the second). -s seed Seed the random number generator with the specified value. -n numops Set the number of operations to perform. -a Print the operations that are performed. -M max_protocol Maximum protocol to use. -f Specify characters that can be used when generating file names. Default: abcdefghijklm. -E Abort when difference in behaviour is found. -m maskchars Specify characters used for wildcards. -v Be verbose VERSION
This man page is correct for version 4.0 of the Samba suite. SEE ALSO

This utility is part of the Samba[1] suite, which is developed by the global Samba Team[2]. masktest was written by Andrew Tridgell. This manpage was written by Jelmer Vernooij. NOTES
