i'm trying to do something which i thought would be simple but i am having a hard time finding information on this. i already have a samba pdc running and managing 17 windows xp clients. i have one linux client that i need to join to the domain. i don't want this client to share anything, i just want it to be on the domain. what does my smb.conf file need to look like??
