samba - Apr 2009 - Authentication

My question is:

Can I use Samba with authentication in LDAP using POSTGRESQL like a Database of
LDAP???

If the answer is yes, How can i do it?

Thanks.

Actually this question is totally unrelated to Samba since Samba does
not care what backend your LDAP server uses.

Therefore, find an LDAP server that support Postgres as backend. ;)

Google suggests that people have been able to run OpenLDAP on top of
PostgreSQL instead of BDB.

Hello,
Yes - LDAP can work with relational databases but the response time
will be slower than in case of BDB backend (BDB - trees & leaves, *SQL
- relations, thus table-like structure).

I do not exactly remember whether the SQL backend works out of the
box, but at the time when I was looking at it (ca. 2 years ago) some
tweaking was mandatory.
