[Samba] Struggling to get SAMBA and Windows working together

[News]

Actually joining the domain
You can do this all in one step with the following command:

smbpasswd -j <DOMAIN> -r <DOMAIN_CONTROLLER> -U <DOMAIN_ADMIN>

Where DOMAIN is the name of your domain (should be the same as the workgroup
parameter in your 'smb.conf' file), DOMAIN_CONTROLLER is the name of the
Primary Domain Controller of your domain, and DOMAIN_ADMIN is an account on
the PDC with Domain Admin privileges. You will be prompted for this users
password, so you should ask your windows admin to help you here if
necessary.
