Question Linux as a Domain Controller

First question, can Linux be configured to be the domain controller
on a network with Microsoft computers?

If so, where can I find information about configuring Linux for this
purpose?

Question

Isn't Samba just a file and printer server?
I'm in the same boat, I have rh7.3 and trying to do the same thing.

essentially, samba on a UNIX server, can replace a windows NT server, aswell as handle PDC for the "workgroup" on a windows network.
