samba - Apr 2008 - Unix ADS group membership or vice versa

Hello,

I have a Samba server set up as a member of an Active Directory domain. 
Authentication works great and my Windows users are able to log on to the
Linux workstation without any problems.

What I'd like to do is set up some of my local Unix accounts as members of
ADS groups.  Is this possible with Samba?  If not, would it be possible to
make an ADS account a member of a local Unix group?

I'm running Samba 3.0.22 that comes with Ubuntu 6.06.

Thanks in advance!

You can't make a local user a member of an AD group since AD needs to
know about them.

You can however add an AD user to a local group just like you would
for a local user.

This is true with normal LDAP accounts as well.
