FC2 authentication with Active Directory

I thought I was following all the very different procedures, but no luck
on log in.  I could query LDAP if I supply a user name/password when
prompted.  Also, I can authenticate with Kerberos and join a domain, but
it doesn't retain a Kerberos ticket.

The reason I'm asking about all this is so that I can use a single log
on for all the different systems (UNIX, Solaris, Windows, and of course
FC2 workstations) we have.

Again, all the help you can provide is very much appreciated.

Jim

I'd love to see a "How-to" as well.  All of the documentation that
I've read states that there are problems with Samba 3.x and Windows
2003  (works fine with Win2K).  The most recent article I've read was
about v3.0, so I don't know if the Samba developers have fixed those
outstanding issues with Win2K3 in more recent versions or not.
