You have to do nothing special. The laptop useres need a unix account 
on the samba server, an encrypted password and map there shares by 
hand. That all. 

Oh, you are using "security = domain". The forget the encrypted 
passwords and let the laptop users (not the laptop machines) have a 
account on the PDC.
