Samba 3.0.1 + OpenLDAP can emulate many if not all of the functionality
of ADS. Permissions and ACLs definitly work, but may take some research
getting used to.

Please see the Samba HOWTO, which is very detailed:

| Hi,
|
|  ok i was told by my teacher that the newer version of samba i.e.
version 3 will be a perfect clone of  active directory and it will have
all the features that active directory domains have.
|
| so tell me if this is true. can a samba version 3 server act like a
ACTIVE directory based windows domain controller?
|
| and also if u can tell me that the domain policies defined by a
windows active directory domain controller will remain undisturbed if it
is replaced by a samba server.
|
| like if i was restricted from accessing the networl folder of one of
my teacher which contains the question paper for  tomorrow exam , will i
still be unable to access it
| or the permissions will go crazy and i would be able to access it.
|
| plz inform me more about how the concept of a active directory domain
and permissions have been incorporated or not incorporated into the new
version of samba
|
| waiting for ur replies
