For Samba to be able to work as a PDC, some modifications are needed in its main configuration file. Select the THREE options below that show the required actions for this task.

Question

Accepted Answer

A. The Samba server has to be a logon server. This can be configured by the domain logons directive. The `domain logons = yes` directive configures the Samba server to act as a logon server, essential for authenticating domain users and machines, a core function of a PDC. C. The Samba server must be a Domain Master Browser. To configure this, the domain master directive Setting `domain master = yes` enables Samba to become the Domain Master Browser, which is responsible for maintaining the browse list for its domain and is a required role for a PDC. E. The security = user directive must be set. The `security = user` directive specifies that authentication should be based on individual user accounts, which is the security model required for Samba to function as a domain controller.

Answer

B. The Samba server needs to have the logon and the account creation scripts, to properly setup the While a PDC uses logon and account creation scripts, these are features utilized by the PDC, not directives to configure Samba *as* a PDC.

Answer

D. The time server = yes directive needs to be configured, so Samba will behave as a WINS server `time server = yes` configures Samba as an NTP server, and `wins support = yes` configures it as a WINS server; neither is a core directive for Samba to act *as* a PDC, though WINS can be useful in a Windows domain environment.
