[Samba] Re: Samba 3 + LDAP with multiple ou's

[Daniel Cristian Cruz]

Yes, each unit has it's own PDC, but each one need to authenticate all
users from the organization.

I think there is no other way than using all users under the same
container, but I'm not a Samba+LDAP specialist, maybe I let something
out on my readings.

Sorry if this message was replicated, some weird things happening through
google groups.
