	Do you need AD? If you don't, change for NT4 style with
LDAP and you can safely use WINS to share names across the VPN.
If you really need AD, you can use WINS and/or winbind (but I'm
not sure about the setup, since I avoid the AD for now, until
Samba4).

	I do not have any contact with SBS2003, except testing it
to show problems to the IT Team, so I can't really help specific
with this, sorry. :-(   WINS should solve your name problem and
you could use two Sambas only, not sure if you really need the
SBS2003.

	Hope this helps,
	Kind regards,
