We have a Windows Small Business Server 2003 which our windows
workstations authenticate against.

I would like to configure our Red Hat Servers to also authenticate the
users against the Small Business Server domain using their domain logons.

I was thinking about using LDAP to retrieve the user's information and
Kerberos for the user authentication since it seems to be better suited
than LDAP for authentication.

I have tried to set it up on a test machine but have failed to get it
working.

Which of these would be the best for retrieving the user information?
LDAP, Winbind

Which of these would be the best for the user authentication?
Kerberos, LDAP, SMB, Winbind

What would the configuration files look like or what entries should I
check for?

Any help on this will be appreciated as I have very little experience
regarding shared logons.

Thanks in advance.
