Hi,

Firstly I want to declare I am a newbie to Samba.  I am installing samba over Redhat 
8.0

I need to know whether Samba can replace my NT4 PDC in the following aspects and how 
to do it:-
1.  ACLs.  Must i create the every user name in Samba as in the NT4 PDC?  How do I 
create groups like "Protocol Stack" with space in between the groupname?  (Making sure 
that the ACls are mapped properly when transfering files over to Linux Samba)
2.  If I were to transfer files from the NT4 PDC to Linux Samba, can I retains the 
ACLs being set on NT4?  How must I do to ensure the ACls are retained?  (Similar to 
question 1)
3.  Is there any method to transfer the SAM over without creating every user and group 
all over again?

FYi, my PDC is doing file sharing only with permissions set for different groups in 
different levels of the directories.   I am going to remove the NT4 server and use 
Samba ultimately.

If cannot answer in 1 email, please refer me to the right documentation to do so.

Thanks.

newbie adrian
