Some work has been done along this path, have a look at http://wiki.contribs.org/Advanced_Samba . I am not sure if this is for NT4 domain membership style only or also for newer Active Directory based structures.

Unfortunately I can not as I don't know. Perhaps AFFA would help in that, please do a search for that, it should give you plenty of threads as well as the wiki page giving you detailed information.

haliparotin:

as you've been told, atm SME doesn't support such a feature..

if your server dies, your client still can login (credential caching) for some time..

I suggest you to read carefully the Affa page in the wiki
