I followed this article for implementing a Samba PDC: http://www.howtoforge.com/samba_setup_ubuntu_5.10_p4 Question 1) The only accout that appears to be able to add an account onto the domain is the root account. There must be a way to change that to a standard account. I'm using Ubuntu and do not use the root account for anything. I've tried changing "root = Administrator" in /etc/samba/smbusers to "otheruser = Administrator" but that doesn't seem to do it. Question 2) Per the document about I have made the following permission changes to /home/samba: rwxrwxr-x 2 root domainusers 4096 2008-09-25 12:43 netlogon drwxrwxr-x 3 root domainusers 4096 2008-09-26 01:40 profiles I bet this would work if I added a user as a domainuser but domainadmins cannot store roaming profiles. How can I see it up so that I can have multiple domainadmins and domainusers (and not use root at all)? Question 3) I have three Linux machines that I would like to connect to the domain. Any good documentation on how to do that? For example, my son using Kubuntu and I would like him to be a domain user. Question 4) Using Windows Vista 64bit on an account that is in the domainadmins group, I still get permission denied errors when trying to access certain folders. Should I have full access as a domain administrator? Question 5) Is there a way to sync the new domain account with the existing account? Currently, when I login to the domain I get a fresh profile and lose all my settings. Due to question 4, I can't even manually migrate the settings from my older profile into the new one. I'm about to completely redo my smb.conf as I am currently using the one straight from the website above which is older. I'm going to use the current version of smb.conf and just manually adjust what's required. Is there anything else I should look into? Links to good websites would be great!
