Problem with Samba (sessionid.tdb not initialised)

Hi everybody,

I manage several Linux servers, and each of them run Samba to allow PCs
running Windows to log on the domain.

In one of these servers there was a problem with Samba, the Windows
machines couldn't log on, and the error message when I ran smbstatus was
sessionid.tdb not initialised. So I verified this file, and it had 0
bytes. Then I copied this file from another server and put it into the
directory /var/cache/samba/, and smbstatus doesn't give this error anymore.

But this server in phisically too far from me, and there is no
connection with Internet there. So I would like to know from you if it
really can solve the problem, before I go to there to remove the
AutoLogon key from the Windows machines.

Thank you very much, and sorry about my English ;)
