Is this the proper / best way to have the integration set up, or is there a better way. From where I sit, and in a perfect world, when a user tried to access a samba share, the samba server would query the domain controller for authentication and process it, similar to accessing a share on one of the windows boxes. I would like to move all my user accounts home directories to the file server, but I don't want to take the time to input all the usernames/passwords, and then have the problem that every time someone changes their windows password, they loose their samba access.
If you have suggestions for reading, or ideas or other helpful hints, I would be greatly appreciative. The resources that I have read on the net are at best confusing. Also I am fairly new to Linux, and although I am learning, it is going to take me a while to get all the ins and outs of the system nailed down, so I may need some procedural help to get things working smoothly
http://www.timkennedy.net/docs/Linux+Active_Directory.html is probably a good start for you.
