I was reading in Samba-2.2.2 documentation that Winbind is currently only available for the Linux operating system. Is this still the case? We use AIX 4.3.3 and I thought this might help us with our problem. We're only wanting to authenticate through the NT-PDC (we don't want to have matching usernames/passwords at the AIX level), and once they're verified on the NT-PDC, they should have access to shares that are valid for their particular workgroup (as I've defined in smb.conf). Thanks for any tips. Darin DeCounter Atex Assistant System Administrator Las Vegas Review-Journal 702-387-5230 ddecounter@reviewjournal.com
