[Samba] Samba server authenticating to NDS with win 2000 clients?

[Peter Hübschen]

Hello,

I don't know exactly if it works, but it's possible to access NDS 
through LDAP. So you can avoid using pam_modules.
But I don't know which steps are required to extend the NDS schema, to 
access through LDAP and which extensions need to be applied for use with 
samba.
