I use the Windows NT 4.0 tools Window Manager for Domains and Server Manager to manage users and servers on my Samba domain. These GUI tools interface with the smbldap-tools . I set up LDAP and Samba in the normal way. I use the smb-ldap tools to add and remove users and machines. I place the User Manager for Domains utility on a Samba share and access it from a Windows 2000 or XP workstation. I add computers to the domain the same way I add them in Windows. I go to My Computer, choose properties and join the domain. Samba works quite well for us. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
