To keep a long story short: use the wiki-page from your topicstart to setup a test-environment with 1 zimbra server and 1 samba server (Primary Domain Controller). After that you can easily add a second Samba server to your domain (Domain Member Server or Backup Domain Controller).
Hivos. I got everything setup and tested. All of my groups and everything work. I will soon be adding Windows PCs to our domain and perhaps using openvpn with its auth-ldap plugin to authenticate zimbra users to our VPN and doing away with our Windows server altogether.

One thing I did notice was that if I put someone in a group and they mounted an SMB share, say //server/production and then I removed them from the group, they could still access and browse the folder. Is this normal behavior? Should it remove their rights immediately?
