I got this message from a guy at Stanford.  Check out the setup!
Quite amazing actually and something I thought many people might find
useful :-)

Subject: samba, afp, ldap, kerberos: solved!
To: sulug-discuss at lists.stanford.edu


Hey, all. A while ago, I posted to the Linux user group asking for
tips on how to configure samba for SMB filesharing, using an external
directory for account provisioning and Kerberos for authentication.  I
was doing this on a Mac, but still couldn't figure it out.  After
first trying to work with Stanford's Active Directory, I got it
working with the university's OpenLDAP directory instead.  It achieves
what I wanted it to do: I can have shares securely available for both
Macs and PCs while leveraging centralized directories.

There's a blog entry with links to download the draft document here:
