I'm looking for an up-to-date howto on using Samba as an AD PDC. I've been using Samba since the days of yore, but have recently acquired the resources to take another stab at implementing an AD system using Samba. Perhaps it has escaped notice that the page with the link text "Official HOWTO" on samba.org points to https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/ which is entitled "The Official Samba 3.5.x HOWTO and Reference Guide". No, that's evidently not what I'm looking for. -- * Jeff Dickens* IT Manager 978-632-1513

It is called an AD DC, apart from the FSMO roles, all DCs are the same. Rowland
Thanks Guilherme and others. Now I see the wiki link.
