<para><command>cat &gt; /etc/samba/smb.conf &lt;&lt; "EOF"</command>
: Create a default <application>Samba</application> configuration file.  This 
configuration will allow <application>Samba</application> to act as a Primary 
Domain Controller for a Microsoft Windows based network.  If this is not 
desired, a simpler default <filename>smb.conf</filename> file is bundled with 
the Samba distribution.  See the 
<filename>samba&samba-version;/examples/smb.conf.default</filename>
file.  Primary Domain Controller configuration is slightly more
complicated than ordinary member server configuration, so instructions
for <acronym>PDC</acronym> configuration will be given here.</para>
