I have never tried. I have used root for administrative purposes. Typically, I give administrative rights to users by putting them as members of the Doman Admins group. You can try that. BTW, I use the NT 4.0 User Manager for Domains tool to manage my users and groups. It works quite well with the smb-ldap tools. Put the tool on a Samba share and run it from a workstation.
