I'm saying Win 10 can't join a SAMBA 3 domain. SAMBA 3 emulates some

aspects of an NT-style (NOT AD) domain.

I imagine simple file serving between Win 10 and SAMBA 3 works,

though I haven't tested it.

Win 7 and 8, with a couple of registry settings, work seamlessly with

SAMBA 3 NT domain emulation. That's what's going away in Win 10.
