The tasks that follow the installation of a Samba-3 server, whether standalone or domain member, of a
domain controller (PDC or BDC) begins with the need to create administrative rights. Of course, the
creation of user and group accounts is essential for both a standalone server and a PDC.
In the case of a BDC or a Domain Member server (DMS), domain user and group accounts are obtained from
the central domain authentication backend.

on the Samba-3 stage. This role will continue to be developed. The inclusion of this chapter is
evidence of its importance, one that has grown in complexity to the point that it is no longer considered
prudent to cover its use fully in the online UNIX man pages.

As stated, the focus in most of this chapter is on use of the <code class="literal">net rpc</code> family of
operations that are supported by Samba. Most of them are supported by the <code class="literal">net ads</code>
mode when used in connection with Active Directory. The <code class="literal">net rap</code> operating mode is
also supported for some of these operations. RAP protocols are used by IBM OS/2 and by several
earlier SMB servers.

Samba-3 recognizes two types of groups: <span class="emphasis"><em>domain groups</em></span> and <span class="emphasis"><em>local
groups</em></span>. Domain groups can contain (have as members) only domain user accounts. Local groups
can contain local users, domain users, and domain groups as members.
</p><p>
The purpose of a local group is to permit file permission to be set for a group account that, like the
usual UNIX/Linux group, is persistent across redeployment of a Windows file server.
