Not quite! Samba-3.0.x can join a Win2K3 AD Domain that is in Native Mode. This is documented in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf available with Samba-3 in the chapter on "Domain Membership". PS: You can obtain this document from: http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf It is also available from Amazon.Com as "The Official Samba-3 HOWTO and Reference Guide" for those who want a hard copy. The book has more information in it than the HOWTO. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
