domain logins for NT Workstation in 2.0.7?

[Charles Lewis]

We already changed the registry and in fact can talk to the samba server as
long
as we supply a user name in password each time we access a resource. What
I'm
wanting is to be able to get NT Workstation to see the samba server as its
PDC
so I can do domain logins, password authentication, implement login scripts,
user profiles, group policies, etc.
