[Samba] Clarification of 'administrator' config w/ldap

[Adam Williams]

root is mapped to windows Administrator account in /etc/samba/smbusers.  
however, since samba 3.0.11 you can make anyone a domain administrator 
(to add machine accounts, install software, etc) see 
http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/rights.html 
for more info.
