[SQU] NetBIOS Name Problem ( urgent )

Hi! My name's Pedro and i'm from PORTUGAL.
I've set up a proxy server, running under RedHat 6.2, using Squid, and it's
working fine, but i wish to have the log files authenticated by user login.
I'm trying to use the smb_auth software and i've followed the steps
described to join the NT domain ( The PDC is an NT Server ) and have
successfully joined the domain, but i can't get a valid authentication.
Here's what i get when i try this:

> smb_auth -W NBPORTO -d

> cmj cmj2000
Domain name: NBPORTO
Pass-through authentication: no
Query address options:
Domain controller IP address: 192.168.7.203
Domain controler NETBIOS name:
ERR

I've followed all the steps described in the "Joining an NT Domain with
Samba 2.0" article, plus the ones on smb_auth from the author of the
program, and i can't understand why can't the NetBIOS name of the PDC be
recognized.
Also, if i try using nmblookup, i get successful answer for the machine
names, but get a warnig message, telling me this:
"Unkown parameter encountered: "domain controller"
Ignoring Unkown parameter "domain controller"
Also if i try nmblookup -d -i Gandalf ( proxy server name ), there' no
positive answer, but with this command, using other host names i get the IP
address associated to the name.

Can anyone help on this? I'm sure someone must have tried to do this.
Thanks in advance.
