    99'''Q: Can Samba Server for eCS (OS/2) operate as a Primary Domain Controller?'''[[BR]]
    10 '''A:''' Yes, that is possible. The sscc.exe installer utility version 0.5.7 that comes with the 3.0.31 WPI package is able to create a smb.conf suitable for a Primary Domain Controller, however it cannot migrate an existing smb.conf. Please note, that it is recommended to use tdbsam backend instead of standard smbpasswd backend if you intend to run a Primary Domain Controller. Use pdbedit with the -i and -e switches to migrate users and groups from smbpasswd backend to tdbsam backend.

    1212'''Q: I see a completely erratic behaviour, when I try to add users to groups - I always get NT_ACCESS_DENIED errors, although credentials should be sufficient. Sometimes the user appears magically after the next operation. What is wrong here?'''[[BR]]
