10 You just need Kerberos and lots of documentation exists on the
11 internet. I've even made a booteable CD which installs Ubuntu for a
12 University. This customized Ubuntu then joins a Windows Active
13 Directory domain using only the domain name, a privileged domain
14 username, and its password. Everything else is done by a script: it
15 finds the kerberos server, the short (nt4) domain name, etc.

17 OP said he successfuly joined the workstation to the Windows domain.
18 He just want to know how to automatically mount shares. I still
19 haven't figured it out that part neither, but I guess some ldapsearch
20 can make the trick. I just need to find the time to take a look at it.
