NT Domain to establish Trust with SAMBA

You need a CVS-version like 2.1 or higher (I don´t know which version)

In which way:
UNIX to NT:
look at:
www.cns.ul.ie/~airlied/pam_smb (for example
NT to UNIX:
look at: 
smbpasswd
in smb.conf: unix passwd sync, passwd chat, passwd chat debug, passwd program
