Hi Willi,

Could you just expand on your issue?

Are you requiring CES to bind to AD to allow authenticated users to 
access your NFS/SMB shares. However you require the ability to add 
additional groups to these users on the CES system?

Or are you trying to use your own account that can join the domain as a 
local admin on a CES node?
