There may already be a version for your distribution or you can check at: https://gna.org/projects/smbldap-tools/ to get the current source. Carefully read and follow the documentation. It's a bit tricky to setup the first time, but well worth the effort. Jim

[Samba] problem to join windows XP hosts to samba-ldap PDC
Guys, " username or password unknown" Did you use the root's samba password? If you don't have one, please create it with smbldap-passwd. If you do have one, try set your wins server in windows to the ip address of your pdc. Then try again to join the pc into the domain. Btw, can you show us your smb.conf? Regards,
