Great job...
Maybe you should think of a better structure for your document, but ist okay
and filled with information... now I have a few questions for you...
>> the HTML version might be a little better

What is SID actually used for??
>> SID is the number coresponding to NT user accounts that controls
permissions, it it similar to UID.
Should I set it as UIDNR under Linux?
>>not sure what your asking here, what is UIDNR?
Do I need the scripts for adding users and changing passwords in smb.conf?
>> only if you want to be able to modify user accounts from NT/2000, ie
change passwd dialog box
Does PDC means that the Samba is administrating all user accounts and
computernames for Network Neighbourhood?
>> yes, it is the master browser for the domain or Primary Domain Controller
Why is wins proxy set to OFF?
>> becuase it's not acting as a proxy server for WINS, for more info check
out the smb.conf man
Last but not least - does Samba creates your home dirs when users log on?
>>No the directories are created with the smbldap-adduser.pl script, (if
set) this is where you set the varables you want passed to the user account.
ie. individual login script, home directory, drives to map, roaming
profiles.  I think it is easier to set these values to null and use one
login script called from the smb.conf file.
