hello Johnny,
Going OT with this, but got to ask the question. How
hard was it to setup the samba with openldap, because
i want to change my samba pdc to use that but was
afraid of having a lot of troubles. I was wondering do
you have a doc on your site that shows this, i have
not been on your site for a while so most likely the
second question would be answered. :-)
thanks for all your help.
Steven
