I did a paper for a local linux conference, where I demoed winbind setup
during Mandrake 9.0 installation. Afterwards, I made configs for RH 8.0,
and they are all in the tarball:

http://ranger.dnsalias.com/mandrake/samba/Integrating%20Linux%20into%20Windows%20Networks.tar.gz

In the redhat directory is a file which can replace
/etc/pam.d/system-auth, to do all authentication of all services that
support pam via winbind.

I also made some changes to RH's default smb.conf to make winbind work
the way it was described in my paper.

Buchan
