[Samba] Samba PDC windoze BDC

[Bill Dossett]

:-( grump grump grump...  is there any
way to get NT to authenticate against
samba?  Unfortunately I've got SQL server
running and we can't migrate to MYSQL
yet for a while... I'm just trying to
avoid keeping two servers in sync with
accounts and I've got everything else
including samba authenticating via ldap
which is excellent, but unless I can get
NT to authenticate via samba or ldap which
seem to be looking unlikely, I guess I'll
have to  - and start testing the alpha 3 stuff
and try and help out with it I guess.
Thanks for the info.

Cheers
Bill
