Gordon,

I checked the HOWTO and it seems we have yet some more work to do to make
it clearer. You can manage your users from a Windows domain member by
using only the SrvTools package. See page 75 of the HOWTO (page 70 of the
book, "The Official Samba-3 HOWTO and Reference Guide") for details on how
to obtain this toolset.

Please bear in mind that Samba-3 can not be an ADS server, thus you can
not use the ADS management tool to manage it.
