ja ik wil linux inderdaad gaan gebruiken als Primary domain controller. is dat iets wat samba niet aankan dan?
dat zou dan inhouden dat een overstap naar een linux netwerk niet mogelijk is zonder een windows PDC te gebruiken?
Hmm, ik quote vanuit een onderwerp hierover op tweakers dit:
http://de.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html#id28724 74
Samba-3 is not, and cannot act as, an Active Directory Server. It cannot truly function as an Active Directory Primary Domain Controller. The protocols for some of the functionality of Active Directory Domain Controllers has been partially implemented on an experimental only basis. Please do not expect Samba-3 to support these protocols. Do not depend on any such functionality either now or in the future. The Samba Team may remove these experimental features or may change their behavior. This is mentioned for the benefit of those who have discovered secret capabilities in Samba-3 and who have asked when this functionality will be completed. The answer is maybe or maybe never!
To be sure, Samba-3 is designed to provide most of the functionality that Microsoft Windows NT4-style Domain Controllers have. Samba-3 does not have all the capabilities of Windows NT4, but it does have a number of features that Windows NT4 domain contollers do not have. In short, Samba-3 is not NT4 and it is not Windows Server 200x, it is not an Active Directory server. We hope this is plain and simple enough for all to understand.

Samba-3 is not able to be a Domain Controller within an Active Directory tree, and it cannot be an Active Directory server. This means that Samba-3 also cannot act as a Backup Domain Controller to an Active Directory Domain Controller.

Echter, ik kan hier geen officiele bevestiging meer van vinden, dus helemaal 100% zeker ben ik niet. Ik raad je aan om dit zeker eerst uit te zoeken.
