I haven't implemented this myself but I would assume you need to have the "private" 
directory either on a cluster shared disk or manually syncronised on each cluster 
node. And also hard code the netbios name and ip address that samba uses on all 
cluster nodes like,

[global]

        netbios name = mysambaserver
        interfaces = 192.168.10.10/24           #virtual ip address

        thanks Andy.

Conversation: [Samba] Rejoining domain after cluster failover
Subject: Re: [Samba] Rejoining domain after cluster failover


My guess you have to upgrade to Samba 3 ?

I don't think you need, if you don't want to, use the LDAP backend for
 SIDs?

I have developed the Sun support agent for Samba on Sun Cluster (The
agent should work the same way). 
There is no problem with Samba 3 as ADS member when the you have failover
or a manully switch.
