[Samba] ldap user suffix

[Gaiseric Vandal]

If the two organizations having nothing to do with each other, does that
mean they don't need access to the same files?


Will the following solution work for you
-  configure a 2nd IP on the server
-  run two instances of samba-  each samba instance has its own smb.conf
file, with unique ip, server name, ldap settings, local configuration
directories etc.   

The two samba instances don't even have to be in the same domain or
workgroup.    I would however make one the WINS server for the whole
organization.

Thanks Luk
I have to store users in different OU, because there is two separate
Units running inside one organization. They have nothing to do with
each other and their parent organization is same and their is only one
Server to manage both.

Thanks
