I have a static IP debian Linux host successfully participating on a
Windows 2003 forest and joined to their Win2003 domain.
I'd like to have my Samba client update their Windows DNS during Samba
startup/shutdown like a typical Windows pc would do... Is this possible
and what is the magic tweak?

If it has a static address, why not create static DNS entries? I think
normally DNS updates are done by the DHCP software so unless you are
assigning your static addresses via DHCP I don't think it will work.

First off, ensure Samba is built with the "--with-dnsupdate" configure
option.
If all is well, joining an AD domain (with "net ads join") or doing a
"net ads dns register" should both cause a DNS update.
Cheers, Dave

Doesn't this depend on your DNS server, or are we talking about Samba
being a member of an AD forest?

Yes, I was assuming the Windows 2k3 AD domain controller was also acting
as DNS server.
