Can someone point me to a good Samba-LDAP-PDC Howto. I've been trying for days to use the howto from www.idealx.org with no success. I keep getting tons of build errors when I try to rebuild the samba-2.2.3a-4 rpm with ldapsam, acl-support, profile, and disable-static. (didn't even see profile, or disable-static on the config options, nor do I think I can use acl-support without XFS) Here's what I have: RH7.2- 2.4.17 (ext3), Latest OpenLdap-2.0.23.src.rpm and latest Samba-2.2.3a-4.src.rpm along with the latest NSS_ldap-184... OK, I don't think it's the instructions, just the user trying to install it (me) but if anyone has run into similar problems, I'd love to hear the potential solutions. I'm not 'real' new to linux, but I don't have a lot of experience configuring and reconfiguring source and rpms. Thanks for your time and any help you can give! -Mark Bulson

I found this quite usefull :- http://www.unav.es/cti/ldap-smb/ldap-smb-2_2-howto.html I would recomend XFS over a patched ext3 for ACL support as you can download a ready made redhat 7.2 kernel which you can just install and you also get xfsdump which is a much better tape backup program. Once the XFS kernel and the XFS tools (including the devel ones) are installed you can compile Samba. I used the latest Samba_2_2 CVS code with ldapsam and acl-support. You will need to create the basic LDAP structure for your site and then a user for Samba to connect as with the correct permissions. Then use the above guide to setup the Administrator and nobody accounts and things should work. I have got Samba file serving on our new server but I have yet to test adding machines to the domain.> -----Original Message----- > From: samba-admin@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba-admin@lists.samba.org]On > Behalf Of Mark Bulson > Sent: 04 April 2002 18:07 > To: samba@lists.samba.org > Subject: [Samba] Samba-LDAP-PDC Howto > > > Can someone point me to a good Samba-LDAP-PDC Howto.
