[Samba] Authenticateing DC's on an ldap backend... nobody knows how?

[stephane.purnelle at corman.be]

Hi,

Could explain more your problem ?

On samba there are machine account for windows NT4, 2000, XP but no
separation between workstation and server and DC.
And also, there are no specific group for machine which are managed by
samba.

no one can understand what you're talking about and they are too busy
answering well formed quesions to ask for clarification.
