unfortunatelly, this is not possible, u can't integrate a Filer in a samba domain.
the reson is a slight difference in the way names are exchanged
i forget the exact reason, it's a lack of support on Netapp side
try to search back in the toaster archive may help you

Hi
Does anybody has already used a samba server as PDC for a filer ?
We actually use samba servers with LDAP (openldap) authentication and I wonder if it would be possible to use a filer in such configuration ? Actually PCs use samba servers as PDC, the samba servers use NFS to store user's data thru NFS mounts. I know it is far to be the best configuration and I would like to let PC users use SMB directly to the filer using samba servers as PDC only.
infos welcome.
Thanks a lot
