I posted a query re a problem I was having getting SAMBA to authenticate
using a Windows 2003 Server ADS and got no reply. Also, I've searched
the web (before posting) and no one else had a reply to any similar
question.

Does SAMBA actually work with 2003 ADS at all or am I flogging a dead
horse?

Getting no reply is a real bummer.  At least getting "forget it!" means
I don't waste more time looking for the issue.

Has ANYONE got SAMBA to work with 2003 Server in native mode? How?
Yes, I just tested it in a 2003 native mode domain. I can "net ads join", and auth-n a user using krb5 with MD5.

If it doesn't work using Kerberos, is there another way?
I recommend to new users to start by configuring Samba with "security=domain", to ensure that they get Samba itself working correctly before going to Kerberos. Yes - Samba will work using NTLM in native mode. You might have to change your domain security policy to accept NTLM. You can also just \\ipaddress\sharename when "security=ads" and it should fall back to NTLM. Assuming your domain add worked okay.

Thanks in advance for any pointers.
Sorry I will not be around to help, leaving for vacation for 10 days.

One very struggling SAMBA mewbie :((
