[Samba] uidNumbers and gidNumbers for samba multi-domain setup (ldap)
Dear friends, I managed to setup one additional PDC of my LAN, authenticating against the same openldap server. I have this ldap tree: - ou=users (for both domains), ou=computers (for both domains) - ou=groups (for the first domain), ou=groups1 (for the second domain) Please, I have these important doubts: 1. is it ok to have the same gidNumbers for well known groups for both domains? I mean, i.e. is it ok to have cn=Domain Users with gidNumber=513 for both domains? (and the same gidNumber for Domain Computers, etc?). 2. is it better/possible to use one common sambaUnixIdPool? or is it better/needed to have different sources for each domain, to assign let smbldap-tools to assign uidNumbers and gidNumbers? Thank you very much in advance, Pablo Chamorro C. -- Ext. 8705 Tel: +57 (2) 7314752/3222/2595 - Fax: +57 (2) 7310514 Carrera 31 #18-07 Parque Infantil - PO Box 1795 - Pasto
