How do i connect SMS to a windows domain. I tried to do it in SAMBA but it tells me the following error.

Binding to domain with command /usr/bin/net join -U Administrator -S the\-spider\-web\.local ..

cannot join as standalone machine

.. failed! See the output above for the reason why.

Have you changed your smb.conf to security=domain?

Here is what it says:

[global]
workgroup = THE-SPIDER-WEB.LOCAL
server string = FTP-Server
security = DOMAIN
log file = /var/log/samba.%m
max log size = 50
acl compatibility = winnt
server signing = auto
local master = No
domain master = No
ldap ssl = no
guest ok = Yes

[Samba @ SMS]
path = /var/smb/samba/
read only = No

[FAXES]
path = /var/spool/hylafax/recvq/
read only = No

[TorrentFlux Downloads]
path = /var/smb/tflux_downloads/
read only = No

I can't see this SMS server from network neighborhood on my other machines but they see each other just fine.

Have your try accessing it directly from an windows machine like '\\IP_ofserver' or '\\hostname'?

I found little time and install a windows server2008 to see what's wrong.
here what I used for smb.conf
Code:
        log file = /var/log/samba.%m
        restrict anonymous = no
        ldap ssl = No
        guest ok = yes
        domain master = no
        encrypt passwords = yes
        public = yes
        netbios name = sms
        server string = SMS Samba Server
        max protocol = NT1
        password server = [Your hostname of you windows server]
        workgroup = [your workgroup or DOMAIN]
        acl compatibility = winnt
        os level = 20
        server signing = Auto
        security = domain
        max log size = 50
        idmap uid = 10000-15000
        idmap gid = 10000-15000

change /etc/nsswitch.conf (it 'll work without it though)
to match
Code:
 passwd:        files nis winbind
 shadow:        files nis winbind
 group:         files nis winbind

Now do
Code:
net rpc getsid -S DOMAIN -I IP_OF_WIN_SERVER -U Administrator%password

trying
'net rpc testjoin' might outputs errors
try to join with
'net rpc join -U User'
usefull commands are
wbinfo -t
wbinfo -u
once you join the domain users can have access to your Samba shares.
Users not in domain will have to login as users in windows server ADS.
