domain logons = yes
domain master = no
security = user
password server = THEPDCNAME
workgroup = THEPDCDOMAINNAME


unixrootprompt# rpcclient -S THEPDCNAME -U admin%pass -W THEPDCDOMAINNAME
[DOM\admin at PDC$ ] lsaquery
[DOM\admin at PDC$ ] createuser YOURSAMBASERVERNAME$ -s -j
create trust account: OK
join domain: OK.
[DOM\admin at PDC$ ] samsync

you WILL need to have created unix /etc/passwd entries in advance of doing
the sam sync command.
