If your PDC and BDC are *not* in the name netbios name space, because for example they do not use WINS, or use only local WINS servers, then you can set each remote 'BDC' as if it was a PDC. The only think that enforced the 'one PDC' requirement in Samba is the netbios namespace, and many sites have been set up where there are multiple PDCs for exactly this (being distributed with an LDAP backend) reason. Note that this does not make any changes to how you have LDAP configured - it may still be master/slave, and it will work just as it did before, as long as the BDCs can write (by following the LDAP referrals).

[Samba] "Must Change Password at Next Login" does not work
When setting the "User Must Change Password at Next Login" flag via usrmgr the user is not prompted to change their password. The various Password fields in password backend (tdb) as viewed using pdbedit are all set to zero, so it is doing something. Setting this using "net sam pwdmustchangenow" works correctly (i.e. the users is prompted to change their password). It also sets all the password fields to zero, but I guess it must be doing something else as well. System is Centos 5.1 x86_64. Samba is a GIT snapshot from 26 Apr 2008. Debug log level 3 and conf files are attached. If this is a bug let me know and I will log it.

[Samba] Can I mount an NFS volume and re-export via SAMBA?
We have an NFS filer right now that we need to provide our windows users access too. For various reasons they won't use SFU, etc. In our legacy environment we have a file server that does NFS/CIFS natively. In our new environment not so much. We want to provide this service to our users and the solution proposed to me is to utilize SAMBA as the mechanism to do so. After doing exhaustive googling and searching I can't seem to find if this is doable, and if it is what kind of things I should be on the lookout for, or configuring the system for. So first, is it possible? Second, if it is possible is it just a matter of mounting the NFS volume on the SAMBA server and then re-exporting to the Windows clients?

[Samba] Weird behaviour concerning send-speed (Debian Etch, Samba from official deb)
Hi, I'm experiencing a very annoying and strange behaviour with Samba since quite some time (I guess like 2 months now or so): When I write to a share speeds are quite excellent with up to 60 Mbyte/sec, however when I want to read speeds are under a megabyte per second, mostly even below 300 kb/s which is rather unacceptable in my opinion. I went through the "usual suspects" - I did a purge and reinstall, starting out with a minimal smb.conf, played around with the send and receive buffer, nothing helped. Well, now for the (in my opinion) really weird part: When I put load on my CPU (e.g. via a simple python "while True: pass") the sending speed goes up to about 20 Mb/sec. As soon as I kill the load-generating process the speed instantly drops to the mentioned ~300 kb/s. Other protocols (http, ftp) don't show this behaviour. Any possible help is greatly appreciated!
