samba - Jul 2007 - Section 7.3.4 Samba3-ByExample

Hello all,

I hope this question is specific enough:

How does Active Directory user info get into the LDAP backend once you
have followed John T's direction in chapter 7, section 7.3.4
Samba3-ByExample?

Thanks!

John

It doesn't.  If by 7.3.4 you mean "Active Directory Domain with Samba
Domain Member Server" Samba is a member of the AD domain, not a
controller.  It doesn't have a local authentication backend.  The user
information already exists in the AD server, Samba (and possibly NSS)
just use it.
