I don't believe it. So with samba 4, we are back to having to have two 
separate accounts and two passwords. AgghhH!!!

So, after all this, I've now found out that Samba 4 only caters for 
windows clients; it does not provide the single sign on that samba3/LDAP 
offers.

That can't be true can it?

Any ideas anyone?
Thanks
