What is the best path to follow to migrate an existing NT domain to a Samba server. I've got several other Samba domains elsewhere, but none of them started as NT domains so I didn't have to do a migration. The existing network has several servers, all of which I intend to retire from fileservice once this migration is finished. At the moment I have my samba server on the network in a bogus domain and of course there's no useful communication. The samba server is set up to use LDAP and is running 3.0.13 under Mandriva.
