A Samba classic PDC has `domain logons = yes` and a [netlogon] share. The administrator wants all users to run a script that maps a network drive. Which parameter should be set in the [global] section?

`logon path = \\server\netlogon`

A company is planning a new Samba deployment and is considering using Samba 3 as a classic PDC. Which factor is most important to consider?

Samba 3 cannot be configured as a domain member.

The classic PDC role is deprecated and lacks support for modern Windows clients.

The classic PDC requires a separate SQL database for user accounts.

Samba 3 cannot support file sharing and domain control simultaneously.

A company has a Samba 3 PDC and wants to add a BDC to improve logon reliability. The BDC will be in a remote office with a slow WAN link. Which consideration is most critical?

The BDC must be configured with `security = user` to authenticate users locally.

The BDC must have a separate SAM database that is manually updated.

The BDC must replicate the SAM database from the PDC, which requires periodic synchronization over the WAN.

The BDC must be in the same subnet as the PDC to function.
