The page is written for a domain member, but you can use some of the 
info on a DC, What you will need to check is if the libnss links are 
setup and if 'winbind' is in /etc/nsswitch.conf.

You may need another file, but we will cross that bridge if and when we 
come to it.

It is not recommended to use the DC as a fileserver, but you will not be 
the only one who does :-)

What OS are you using.
