samba - May 2009 - Please translate M$ speak: create a new organizational unit

Hi All,

     I am a bit new to Samba PDC.  When a M$ tech article says:
"Use Active Directory Users and Computers to create a new
organizational unit (OU)".  What does this mean in Samba PDC talk?
Please translate.

Many thanks,
-T

I have a lot of guesses, but I want to hear it from someone
who has already done it.

It doesn't translate; Samba 3.x emulates/provides an NT4 domain, not an
Active Directory domain.

I don't think this is M$ speak, but rather LDAP speak.

That is LDAP terminology, not MS's.
You can do it: google LDAP. There is plenty of information out there.
