I am having a hard time getting any information from this list about the
default OU's used when running the net ads join command.
After mapping to the wrong OU in Active Directory for a Samba Domain
Member Server (ou=wrong_container,dc=server,dc=com) I cannot change this
back to the default (cn=users,dc=server,dc=com). Any help is
appreciated and here is the result of net ads dn command:
This is the contianer I would like to have used:
jason at doc-odin:~> sudo net ads dn CN=Users,DC=scl,DC=utah,DC=edu

And here is the results of the same command on the container in which I
mapped on accident following the Samba-Official-HowTo Chapter 6 Section II:

If you compare the two you can see that there is a gPLink attribute on
the container I DONT want to use vs. the other. Any assistance is
appreciated.
