The menu approach does not work here. I can authenticate users with
the pam_smb module. It has instructions with it. The only problem is
that user accounts must be created on each system before users can log
in. Otherwise, pam_smb works fine to authenticate users.
I never had any luck with winbind or ldap bacause those approaches
require co-operation of the active directory or the ldap server, and I
don't have administrative power there. but, with pam_smb, I do not
need it. I can authenticate users without any cooperation from the
windows domain administrators..
