[Samba] Changing SMB Administrator account name

[Mccrory, Kevin B]

How do you change the Administrator account name for Samba/LDAP? On all of
our Windows machines we change the default Administrator account name to
something else. I want to do that for the Samba/LDAP PDC so that all the
machines are in sync.

Have you tried to change the uid/rename the entry in LDAP? The SID is
what matters, so the uid shouldn't matter. It probably won't let you
rename the object, but you can create a copy with a new name and delete
the old one
