It will be very sad if that's the case, since it means Samba is 
not adequate tool for this purpose. If we need to manage 
separate passwords database anyway, no difference than just have 
the Windows support person setup a Windows box to do the file 
sharing.

I was hoping to convince decission maker to use Samba with real 
advantage to integrate with main LDAP/Kerberos ID management 
infrastructure. It will be sad to see that this is something 
that cannot be done by FOSS community.

The LDAP/Kerberos is already established - extensively used and 
secured - so it won't go anywhere. I want to use Samba but it 
has to be integrated into existing authentication mechanism.
