|    Okay, so if I understand what you are get at, is that I should setup
| an AD domain, make my Samba server belong to another domain and the
| Samba domain trust the AD domain, that way I get the AD users in my
| Samba domain, which will let me use domain logins, which is the big

| ROLE_DOMAIN_MEMBER" ...

|    Does this sound right?

Basically yes.
