It's best to already have the machine added to the domain prior to doing
a login from that machine TO the network domain. You might also want to
get some info from the SAMBA list - I'm part of that as well -heaps of
awesome information...BTW, here is a sample /etc/samba/smb.conf that a
mate sent me for EXACTLY that same purpose...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[global]
workgroup = CCGM
netbios name = CCGM-SERVER
netbios aliases = server-ccgm
server string = Samba Server %v
encrypt passwords = Yes
update encrypted = Yes
null passwords = Yes
pam password change = Yes
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
unix password sync = Yes
admin log = Yes
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
time server = Yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
printcap name = lpstat
domain admin group = @smb-admin
domain guest group = @users
add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g machines -c
'Machine Account' -s /bin/false -M %u
domain logons = Yes
os level = 64
preferred master = Yes
domain master = Yes
dns proxy = No
wins support = Yes
guest account = guest
valid users = @smb-admin @ccgm @satyagra
admin users = @smb-admin
read list = @ccgm @satyagra
write list = @smb-admin
printer admin = @smb-admin
printing = cups
---------------------------------------------------------
Of course, you're going to have to snip/edit some things here and there
- but you also might want to make use of SWAT to do your basic
configurations for SAMBA - it's a beautifully powerful tool mate...
Cheers!

I lay my head on the railroad tracks,
Waitin' for the double E.
The railroad don't run no more.
Poor poor pitiful me. [chorus]
Poor poor pitiful me, poor poor pitiful me.
These young girls won't let me be,
Lord have mercy on me!
Woe is me!
Well, I met a girl, West Hollywood,
Well, I ain't naming names.
But she really worked me over good,
She was just like Jesse James.
She really worked me over good,
She was a credit to her gender.
She put me through some changes, boy,
Sort of like a Waring blender. [chorus]
I met a girl at the Rainbow Bar,
She asked me if I'd beat her.
She took me back to the Hyatt House,
I don't want to talk about it. [chorus]
