Ubuntu 8.10 and AD users

[Stephen]

I am part of an It team at work, and when i lost the vista install on
my machine i decided to see how well i could run Linux as my desktop
in that environment, with a great thumbs up from my boss which is even
better, as he wants to see how it works out.

I can join the domain now and log in with AD users but i cannot give
them any permissions other than that of a regular user, not can i add
them to a my sudoers list which is odd.

I am using a new method for AD membership (being likewise-open) than a
normal samba configuration which i think is part of my oddity.

Has anyone here used likewise-open at all? or any suggestions on how
to bring in the AD user list so that i can better integrate with my
network?

Thanks for your time!
