Hello, Has anyone run Hula Server (http://www.hula-project.org) and Samba on the same server and got the user authentication to sync? I imagine this would involve configuring Samba to use eDirectory (Novell) which Hula is using for store. I have searched everywhere for documentation referencing Hula and Samba integration/authentication but only found one article announcing that Novell has contributed its eDirectory APIs to the Samba Project. Have these APIs been implemented yet? Please could someone point me in the right direction? Many thanks in advance. James

I have done some prliminary work on integrating Samba 3.0.10 and OX 0.7.5. this is documented on the OX wiki. Most of the Doc is copied and pasted from JHT's work but adapted for Debian. It hasn't been updated for the OX 0.8beta4 release or for Samba 3.0.11 but the basics are there to create a Win2K SBS replacement. (I'm just waiting for a more stable release of Oxlook to sync outlook with OX) Regards Geoff Scott
Thanks Geoff - from what I have learned from the Hula group your spot on. Feedback from the Hula group suggests they are going to change the user store to use LDAP (I think OPENLDAP) and therefore will eventually support SAMBA this way.
