it is not my expertise so i need to get some direction please so i can google better on this one.
looks like to many choices and i am sure some are time wasters.
for those of you that have done it, what is your recommendation on the absolute easiest / fastest implementation to get a centos file (space) server to auth from a windows domain controller?
do you need more info?
i know i do and have asked the windows admin if we need more than a login and password or login/domain and password etc.
thanks in advance.

Configure samba to enter the domaine (with security = ADS or security = domain , depending on your windows domain) , join the domain, use winbind to resolv windows users/group, modify /etc/nsswitch.conf and start using the samba server More informations on the samba website of course
