samba - Jan 2005 - PDC Domain Name Change

What are the repercusions, particularly with respect to XP Pro, for 
changing the domain name in Samba 3.0.9 PDC?

Can I join a Samba PDC to a W2K domain with net rpc or is this a bad idea?

The domain SID will be regenerated (you can manually set it
to the old value after the name change if you like).

bad idea.  Samba 3 cannot currently operate as a BDC for
NT4 or AD domains with Windows DC's
