I believe these directions are for setting up Samba as an NT4 style PDC.
>From your description it sounds like you want the samba server to be a
domain member server in a Win2003 AD and use winbind to authenticate
users. If that's the case and you followed the directions on that
website, then your samba config is definitely not going to work for you.

I suggest reading chapters 3 and 6 here if you haven't already:
http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/

Here's some good troubleshooting tips:

Subject: [Samba] Samba 3.0.28 failing to authenticate on Win2003
ServerActive Directory

I have set up a Fedora 8 server running Samba 3.0.28a-0.fc8 (the Fedora
yum package version).  I have successfully joined the server to the AD
realm of a Win2003 server on the office network.

Configuration was done following this guide:

   http://www.howtoforge.com/samba-domaincontroller-swat-fedora8-p3

However Authentication against the AD server does not work.  When I test
winbind with:

   # wbinfo -u

I get:

   Error looking up domain users

I have also found the following output in /var/log/messages/  It is
generated each time Samba is started (note: date and time have been
removed for clarity)

I have used Samba in small workgroups for some years, but this is the
first time that I have tried anything with Active Directory, so I am way
out of my depth.

Can anyone recommend how I should go about troubleshooting this issue?
if you require more information please let me know.

Langdon
