[Samba] Samba 2.2.x and domain groups

[Bert Rapp]

I appreciate the response, but I want to be sure I understand this fully.

If I wanted a group DomainSpecificApplicationUsers.  And then I wanted 
to give this group read only permissions to a directory on an NT box. 
 If I am using Samba 2.2 as the PDC, I cannot do this?
