Hi All,
I was wondering if anybody has had similar issues?
1. Why will the --with-pam option work when only encrypt passwords = no
in the smb.conf file?
2. Is their a way to set encrypt passwords = yes in the smb.conf and
still use the --with-pam option?
I'm running Samba 2.2.8a with the following ./configure...
./configure --prefix=/opt/samba \
--with-configdir=/opt/samba/etc \
--with-privatedir=/opt/samba/etc/private \
--with-lockdir=/opt/samba/var/locks \
--with-piddir=/opt/samba/var/locks \
--with-logfilebase=/opt/samba/var/log \
--without-readline \
--enable-shared=yes \
--enable-static=no \
--with-acl-support \
--without-winbind \
--with-pam
My goal is to have a Windows 2000 Professional workstation login to a
domain based environment to utilize roaming profiles. From what I can
digest, it seems the Windows 2000 Professional only works when encrypt
passwords = yes in the smb.conf file.
When connecting to a Samba server using a Mac OS X client just for
testing purposes, with encrypt passwords = no and --with-pam enabled...
a test user can authenticate against the Samba Server via PAM then
PAM_LDAP with great success :)
In the worst case, I would really appreciate it if you could direct me
to where I could modify any piece of the samba code to allow pam even
with encrypt passwords = yes?
BTW, the Samba team has really made great software!
