[Samba] Active directory authentification with Samba

[Rob Tanner]

The samba home page (in SWAT) has a section at the bottom called 
"Books".   Click on "Samba 3 by Example".  Then click on "Active 
Directory, Kerberos ans Security".  Go through that material and make 
sure you've set everything up correctly.  It has a lot of step by step info.
