Go to http://www.wlug.org.nz/ActiveDirectorySamba for an excellent
howto. Worked perfect for me

Trying to move ahead with my samba-winbind-ads setup, I followed the
directions in the how-to suggested by John to the letter.  I checked and
rechecked everything to make sure all was right.  I found that "net ads
join" only worked if I added the "S" switch.  Without it, I'd get the error
"ads_connect: Transport endpoint is not connected".  Doing a "wbinfo -u"
returns "Error looking up domain users".  What the ... am I doing wrong?

Never mind.  I found that when I substituted the IP address of the DC in
both smb.conf and krb5.conf, it worked.  At least as for as "wbinfo -u" and
"wbinfo -g" returning expected results.  However, getent passwd does not
return the expected results.  Any idea as to why this is?
