i am using samba with winbind in redhat linux with security = domain
in smb.conf however a windows client can access a share in the samba server only if the samba
server name is added in the logon to restriction option in the Win 2k
Active Directory.
For example: username john can login only to computer ALPHAONE, he
can only access the samba share if i add the samba server name for ex.
SAMBA in the list of the computers he can logon to. Any suggestions on how to bypass this?

Your security policies are working correctly.

Even though the samba box is a member of the domain, it is viewed as another "PC" and therefore John is not allowed login there.
