Update:
Each time we set up a new user on the system, passwords need changing on the AD
and the samba server. Is there a way to set permissions for the samba from the
AD so that we do not need to go through this rigmarole? (most problematic at
the start of a new school year).

My aim is to also have some linux (probably k/ubuntu) boxes that authenticate
on the network using standard AD credentials. I have tried in vain to find a
way to introduce a single point of authentication, I have looked at kerberos,
winbind and LDAP. I consider myself a good network technician, but the
introduction of linux into a domain has thrown me. Is there a an easy way to
integrate a linux fileserver with a windows controlled domain with both linux
and windows clients?
