Thanks but I am not sure that I have made myself clear. I want to remove Windows NT from my production environment. I would like to use Samba as the PDC with ldap backend and some replication. So far in tests this all works EG, Window7 and WinXP can authenticate.
I have one more thing I would like to achieve. I want files on the Samba member server to be owned by the domain user without having to add each domain user locally to the member server's /etc/passwd file. I don't think the articles you have suggested address how to do that. Dp.
