[Samba] How to get rid of misspelled DNA entry?

[Peter Serbe]

Thank You Sebastian!

I wanted to try out LAM, but due to a lack of time I haven't done 
so far. I will also check Apache Directory Tool and then decide, 
which one is easier to use (given there is no relevant experience
around). I'll report my findings. 

Best regards
Peter
