[Samba] How to join a linux machine to a "pure" Active DirectoryDomain using Samba 3.0alpha21?

[Errol Neal]

net ads join will add your samba box to the windows 2000 domain, and the domain does not have to support mixed mode. You will need to have kerberos setup and tested on your system (linux). Do you already have this done?
