Laptop-mode unfortunately does not support kernel 3.1 (I am running F16

Basically, if a user wants to change their password on a client, the
change has to be propagated to the samba server so it can also set the
windows password. It works fine to tell users to use 'smbpasswd -r
samba.mydomain', or

I think Fedora is a good distro to start. As Joe Wulf said, is a good
idea to install it in VirtualBox first, so you can play with linux &
windows at the same time, and make the transition easier.
