Hi.  This very day I setup Samba 2.2.3a to act as a PDC for WinNT & Win2K
workstations.  Not too painful after you review the doco on www.samba.org
on the subject.

The NT boxen were trivial to setup to talk to the Samba PDC but the 2K
boxen playing up - but it could be the dreaded SP2 bug.  I'm going to
patch one of the 2K boxen and see how we go.
Cheers,
