| Hm... we've got Samba 2.2 running as a PDC and a file server with
winbind also on Samba 2.2 and it actually works.

Then you should probably upgrade the samba on the PDC, as it is probably
running 2.2.2 or older.

Anyway, it is a much better solution to run LDAP instead, since then
uid's will be consistent between your server and the client (which they
won't be now), and then you can use NFS instead of smbfs. Plus you can
start migrating to LDAP and eventually have your samba store passwords
in LDAP.

Plus, LDAP has it's uses.
