 # AD-Integrated Containerized Samba File Server

+This repository provides a production-oriented Samba file server container that joins an existing Active Directory domain and exposes three SMB shares: `Private`, `Data`, and `FSLogix`.
 
 ## Architecture
 
 - Samba runs in ADS mode with `winbind` identity mapping.
 - Static shares:
-  - `\\server\Privat` -> `/data/private`
+  - `\\server\Private` -> `/data/private`
   - `\\server\Data` -> `/data/groups/data`
   - `\\server\FSLogix` -> `/data/fslogix`
 - FS_* groups are projected as folders inside the Data share (`/data/groups/data/<groupName>`).

 - Dynamic group discovery primarily uses machine-account LDAP (`net ads search -P`); join credentials are only used as a fallback LDAP bind path.
