I was looking through my o'reilly book and according to it all of the ldap inputs that would be in smb.conf are not supposed to be there in samba 3.0. How do you specify which ldap server to use and whatnot?
I'm kind of a newbie with some of the samba stuff so this might not be
right.
According to the Samba site the only obsolete options are the following:
printer driver (replaced by new driver procedures)
printer driver file (replaced by new driver procedures)
printer driver location (replaced by new driver procedures)
use rhosts
postscript
client code page (replaced by dos charset)
vfs path
vfs options
I would say you just use the same options as before. Are you doing
something like connecting to a Windows network?

Alternatively, you may obtain a copy from the documentation area on all samba web sites. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Email: jht@samba.org

Dear All, I use fedora. I want to use LDAP with samba. I follow samba 3.0 howto collection. How can I add samba to my system? Is there a program like 'smbpasswd -a'? If I must create LDIF file to add user, how can I know value of some fields, for example, SID? Thanks, Theewara
