Ok, now that I found out that the parameter that is widely referenced in online docs regarding the AD server doesn't exist anymore, I am now having a different problem.. I can only log into the samba server if security = domain. If I set security ads, nobody can log in. HELP!!!! Yes, the samba machine has joined the domain. :) -- Ronald R.
