I think security = domain just has that samba box look at the PDC for authentication. I don't think accessing a share has anything to do with if the workstation is a part of the domain or not. If you try to connect to that share \\sambafileserver\testshare it should prompt you for a username and password. If it doesn't that means you are logged in with a valid username already. You can check smsbstatus to see how you are connected. If you have two domain users, user1, user2, you can make a share on available to one user by doing valid users = user1
Are you trying to restrict machine from accessing a share? I'm not sure if you can use the hosts allow per share. Am I understanding you correctly?

I have successfully deployed my first Samba 3 PDC with LDAP. I have another Linux PC (separate from the PDC) that is acting as a file server, with it's own shares. This PC has no local user accounts, and I set this with security = domain, passwd server = SambaPDC. It successfully joined it to the domain with net rpc join etc.. On each share I specify which users can access that share (valid users = ) Should security = domain mean that only workstations already joined to the domain can have access to the file server shares? Until now, I can still access the shares even from the non-domain workstations. In other words, can a Samba3 domain member limit access to its shares only to other PCs that are also domain members? Or, even better, can this be specified specifically per share?
