the HP CIFS Server should create machine accounts for Windows Clients (member
servers). To enable this feature, choose “Primary Domain Controller” when
executing samba_setup, then

The configurations shown in this section are not required
for the basic PDC functionality.
Map
an NT Domain Admin Group to a Unix Group
A Samba Server can be configured as a PDC to map a Windows
NT domain admin group to the Unix group.
Modify the smb.conf file
to set the global parameter named domain admin
group to point to the Unix admin group and user. Example:
[global]
domain
admin group = root @adm
In this example,
a group called “adm” should be created by the
user in the /etc/group file.
Map
an NT Domain Guest Group to a Unix Group
A Samba Server can be configured as a PDC to map a Windows
NT domain guest group to the Unix group.
Modify the smb.conf file
to set the global parameter named domain guest
group to point to the Unix guest built-in group and user. Example:
[global]
domain
guest group = guest @guest
In this example, a group called “guest” should
be created by the user in the /etc/group file.
