Excuse me, but I don't understand the meaning of your hints.
The samba server is member in the Domain MYDOM, I told this, because you asked.
I've read exactly this document you mentioned.
For the join, I used:
net ads join ....

I see the computer account in the Microsoft ads.

My Problem is, I want to setup a CIFS-proxy, not a fileserver.
- Despite of setting up the proxy as ad viced in
https://github.com/ccrisan/samba/blob/master/source4/ntvfs/cifs/README
I get error messages in the log, that no path is available in the
service [test].
After asking Google, i found in
https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2012-August/168723.html
that Andrew Bartlett stated, that cifs vfs must enabled via

server services = +smb -s3fs
dcerpc endpoint servers = +winreg +srvsvc

in the global section.

I did this, but it didn't helped.

Thanks Mike
