Yes, you need the most recent version with the following bugfix:
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1315

You also need Kerberos installed and configured on your machine (not
covered by this mailing list). Once that is done you can modify your
smb.conf file with the following lines:
workgroup = <MYDOMAIN>
security = ADS
realm = <MYKERBEROSREALM>
password server = <MYDOMAINCONTROLLER> <BACKUPDOMAINCONTROLLER>
