As you say, I see 'root = administrator' in smbuser, but I am still
unable to authenticate as administrator. During the authentication
attempt the following log entry is recorded-

check_ntlm_password:  Authentication for user [administrator] ->
[administrator] FAILED with error NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER

 I believe that I need to use make an entry with pdbedit linking the
domain admin sid to root.
However, trying that produces-

smbldap_search_domain_info: Searching
for:[(&(objectClass=sambaDomain)(sambaDomainName=MYDOMAIN))]
smbldap_open_connection: connection opened
Username not found!

So what more do I need to add?
