[H-GEN] Samba & Printers

Your next step is to get samba-ldap authentication working ;-). We have 
this successfully set up for a distributed network including 3 remote 
locations and it works a treat (with full 'blows encrypted passwords). All 
auth (unix, blows, etc) now under one roof, sychronised securely network 
wide...nice :-). Bye Bye 'blows servers, client licensing headaches and 
clear text passwords over the wire.

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,
                 -Rob
