Samba 2.2.x will not make a PDC for a win2k active directory domain. you can
however use it as a NT4 domain PDC that win2k sill understand.
Samba 3.0 (in alpha) is the one that is supposed to have all the new M$
Active Directory stuff. If you want to play with alpha software- go for
it...

I'm using samba 2.2.3a. I have downloaded the 2.2 faq and I can't see anything overly obviouse.
