My users does not need to supply the domain name, because i told my
smb.conf
        winbind use default domain = yes
And i use apache 2.0 authPAM using pam winbind using samba for auth.

For apache 2.2 i was planning to use authnz_external and the external
pwauth program that checks auth against pam. But today one of my users
told me that he ported apache 2.0 auth pam to apache 2.2. We are going
to test it on a test server, then possibly on the production server,
and then we'll probably release it.

But maybe authnz_external is better because it doesnt need apache to
start/run as root?
See these articles:

All this should allow you to only supply the username, which is a
little less.
