Samba does not support many of the AD PowerShell commands that manipulate AD objects, as these are backed by Active Directory Web Services on a Windows DC.
There are quite a few useful things Powershell can do and do simpler than earlier approaches with VBScript.
So it would be useful if Samba provided this interface.
Thankfully a prototype project has been built by Catalyst's Samba Team.
This proof of concept was built to prove the understanding of the protocol, and was tested with
AD-GetComputer
it is likely that other read interfaces also work.
It has not been reviewed for security and directly accesses the Samba AD database in sam.ldb
