Hi,

Well, I have TNG partially working, in that Win9X can access shares ... :-)

However, things I don't understand are:

1. Do you have to add a root account or privileged account to the smbpasswd
file before anything will work properly?  For example, lsaquery would not
work until I added root.

2. Which tools to I add trust accounts with? smbpasswd or rpcclient?

3. How do I add groups and which groups do I need?

4. How do I join my own domain as the PDC?  There appears to be no joindom
command in rpcclient, so I imagine I still have to use smbpasswd?
