There are numerous steps and possibilties, so it's hard to know where to start. First, if you're going to use "valid users", make sure you're using Samba version 3.0.23c or 3.0.23d. Second, since you're using winbind, you might have better luck with *valid users = @"CAD+Domain Users"*. Two good how-to's for winbind setup and ADS membership are at http://www.enterprisenetworkingplanet.com/netos/article.php/3487081 and http://www.enterprisenetworkingplanet.com/netos/article.php/10951_3502441_1 . They worked well for me. Windows 2003 may not be exactly the same, but should be similar.

Good luck,
Dale
