Yes. It can be done, but this will not scale for use with PDC/BDC environments. Machine accounts change security password at regular intervals. Machine account passwords must be identical on all PDC/BDC machines. You will need to figure out a way to ensure that this happens - somethings that can be done with LDAP but not with tdbsam backends. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
