[Samba] ADS with Kerberos trust

Hi,
We have an environment where we use LDAP and Kerberos and we are having
trouble setting up Samba with both of these.
We also have a win2k Active Directory server that has all the users
mapped to our kerberos realm.  Unfortunately when we try and configure
to use the Active Directory server for authentication it tries to use
the native win2k password and not the kerberos realm mapping.
I have tried to set the smb.conf to the kerberos realm and the password
server to the KDC but I get:
"session setup failed: NT_STATUS_NO_LOGON_SERVERS"

Does anyone have any ideas how to make samba either use active directory
with the username mappings to kerberos?  Or simply use kerberos
authentication while and LDAP authorisation?
I believe the first solution would be easier as then AD would look after
all the details.. whereas when we tried to setup samba talking to
kerberos and ldap, the ldap config needed changing and samba had to know
how to create users in kerberos and ldap.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
