I still have not gotten samba client to work right on SUSE 9.1l. I finally got to join the domain, but it changed the smb.conf from ADS to Domain. If I do smbclient -L servername and put in my login and password, it comes back access denied. I have a couple of questions though that maybe someone can answer. The Servers are Win2K with Active Directory running. I know the domain controller and password werver is named mailman and can ping it. The security is with ldap. 1. Going to Yast, system, runlevel editor, it shows smb running. All of the documentation I read says smbd. Has this changed or is this something peculiar to SUSE? 2. From what I have read, it seams winbind is for PAM security. Is it also used for ldap? 3. Do I need winbind on this machine that is only a client? Art
I am not a fully qualified Pro at this, but there are a few caveats to windows / samba integration: Samba does not use encrypted passwords by default, but NT-based windows (4.0SP3+ 2000, XP, 2003), will use encrypted passwords by default. As you can imagine, the encrypted password does not match its plain-text original, thus causing a password failure. More info on this can be found in the Samba Documentation (even in SWAT) and on: http://samba.linuxbe.org/en/samba/learn/encryption.html The rest, unfortunately, I cannot help you with.
