Thanks for the help.. I got some reading matter for the upcoming fall
holiday ;-)

Questions so far that come to mind are:
My current Windows 2003 server must stay! It is the Application server: can Samba act as a PDC with this machine in its domain? Or will win2003 try to
take over. It is just a member server.. Not a BDC.

It can be a domain member server in a samba domain. Remember that the samba domain is an NT4 style one


Can i map the current users on my NT domain to LDAP users on my LDAP
directory. These users have an a-mail account and password in place! Will
this cause headaches?


Possibly although this will be quite a project for you. You may not be able to use the generic smbldap scripts to vampire the users out of your old NT4 domain. I would suggest taking a copy of your ldap databases and then running a vampire to a brand new server with it being set up as a master ldap server. It may be that the smbldap-tools will add the relevant samba parts to your already existing ldap users, as long as the ldap users have the same usernames as your nt4 users.....


Bye Veronica
