== Joining a computer to a domain without a WINS server ==

It appears that in order to join an AD Domain, that domain must have a WINS server.
The typical way to join samba to a domain is:
net ads join -U Administrator@DOMAIN.TLD

Without a WINS server this returns the following error:
Failed to set servicePrincipalNames

A workaround is to use 'net rpc' to join samba to the domain.
net rpc join -U administrator -w DOMAIN
(here DOMAIN - is Pre-Windows 2000 domain name!)

		+	== Shares ==
		+
		+	When creating shares in ''/etc/samba/smb.conf'' make sure the 'valid users =' is set to an Active Directory user/group.
		+
		+	Example:
		+	[MyShare]
		+	vomment = My Shared Folder
		+	browsable = yes
		+	readonly = no
		+	valid users = DOMAIN+ledhed
		+
		+	If you have spaces in your usernames you must wrap the username in quotes. Also note you must add a '''@''' in front of any Active Directory group.
		+
		+	Example:
		+	[MyShare]
		+	vomment = My Shared Folder
		+	browsable = yes
		+	readonly = no
		+	valid users = @"DOMAIN+limited users"
