[Samba] Samba as a domain controller for Linux workstations?

[Alysson Chen]

I managed to download from Resolvo website and installed on a Suse
Server. Was able to create new Samba shares and users via the
management console.

Anyone tried the Migration Tool? I don't have a NT 4 Server running,
but it'll be cool if the tool worked.

Regards,
Alysson
