We've not got a domain at work at the moment, but i'm having a half-a$$ed attempt (ie messing about when i've nothing better to do) to set one up using samba.

There's an article about it in computer shopper magazine this month with instructions and a sample samba.conf file to have a go at if that may be any help.

Cheers john, I will take a look!
The reason I am asking is that our company is thinking of scrapping our windows 2000 Active directory server and going with Samba....

Oh yeah, and there's loads of documentation on it on the samba website.
