[Samba] upgrade from 2.2.x to 3.0.0

[Andrew Judge]

Yeah, I actually did that.  Now the really sucky part - the people with
domain admin rights before no longer have them.  So.. things like quickbooks
no longer work on their machines.  And... you can't see the friging domain
users - probably as a result of not having the same SID on the machine.

Anyone know how to test this?

I ran into this same problem. There is one more thing you need to do:

net groupmap modify ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroup=ntadmin
