Hi list, I have looked around in the HOW-TOs and Samba Examples and also looked at old posts but I'm still a little confused. My simple question is: Is it possible to set up a samba server at a branch office in a Windows 2003 AD domain so that it can handle logins to minimize WAN traffic? It is stated in the How-To that Samba can't become a BDC in an AD environment but as I understand it can be a member server. Is this enough? If this is not possible what options are there. Maybe just put the NETLOGON share on a samba share? Cheers, Henrik
