[Samba] migrating smbpasswd backend to ldap backend

[Peter Collins Wasenda]

Hi,
Migrated users successfully to ldap. I stupidly deleted secrets.tdb.  
what significance does this have ? The users seem to be able to login,  
but i can't add a new computer to the domain because it does not  
access my password.

how do i create the domain admin ?
