Is there any sample Python scripts that create Security Descriptors?

You want pydoc rather than python to view the documentation.

The documentation is viewed by specifying the python path to the object
you want to view the documentation of. The build system makes sure that
all python modules are installed in our standard python path, in
<samba-dir>/bin/python.

Roughly speaking, bin/python/samba/foo.py will translate to the python
module path "samba.foo". E.g. to view the docs for
bin/python/samba/my_test_set.py, run:

PYTHONPATH=<samba-dir>/bin/python pydoc samba.my_test_set

Of course, to be able to do this, your tests need to be installed into
bin/python by the build system. Most plain python files are linked from
source4/scripting/python/... (this would apply to your tests) The
compiled extensions (.so files) live all over the tree.

Cheers,
