DOes anyone have any good readme's FAQ's on getting WINBIND working?
I know its part of Samba (RedHat 8.0).
But a) I don't understand how it fits in with normal Linux authentication and how it replaces it.
and b) I don't know how to configure it - I've got the O'Reilly and Que Samba books but neither cover WINBIND.

Apparently WINBIND also covers other areas of authentication such as FTP, WEBMIN, TELNET, SSH etc...

I'm not a Linux guru - I've only been getting serious with it in the month so be gentle with me!
