heloo,
I'm new to the world of Samba, but am finding it pretty easy to configure
with the ORA book in hand. I am having a problem though.
I'm trying to incorporate my Linux server onto an NT-controlled
domain. I'd like to have it so that I don't need to have the names of
the
users that are logging onto the linux box, as account-holders. This is
possible as I understand it.
I don't know how to properly tell the PDC what shares are allowable on the
linux box however. There's a wizard for file sharing (is there any other
place where I can access this functionality? I feel dirty using a wizard
;). Upon telling it that I want to allow sharing on a network computer,
and finding the linux box, it gives me the error mesage: "the selected
computer could not be found".
Is this the method that I use to allow users/groups onto the system as
determined by a PDC? below is my "global" portion of the smb.conf
file:
[global]
workgroup = Irvine
server string = Support
security = domain #use the PDC for authentication
password server = JOSHUA #the PDC server
encrypt passwords = yes
username map = /etc/samba/login_map
default service = scratch
log level = 3
thank you!
