Samba 3 domain member or W2k Active Directory Navtive Mode
 

I've successfully made my mandrake 10 box join a Windows 2k domain "Native Mode" with Kerberos/LDAP.

My problem now is that since my Mandrake box is native member of my Active Directory Domain how do I create the shares on the Mandrake box to use it as a file server.

I know in the past I had to edit the smb.conf directly on the linux box but now can I do this all from the windows server side and grant permissions to my windows users? using mmc tools ???

used Samba 3.0.2 with Mandrake 10 No patches
