Hi, My name is Tommie, I am new to tthe list...greetings to you all. I have a couple of quetions. Our college network is running on Debian and Ubuntu, we are trying to migrate the rest of the services to Ubuntu... the Active Directory is the one that is still using windows. My questions are: How can i substitute the windows Active Directory by Samba? How can i migrate Active Directory users to Debian/Ubuntu? Tommie -- -- Tomas Alberto Ramirez Andujar, msc.

Tommie, To emulate an Active Directory DC, you will have to use Samba 4. Note that Samba 4 is still in alpha, but some have reported using it successfully in production environments. http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4 Dale On 10/28/2010 11:43 AM, Tomas Alberto Ramirez Andujar wrote:> Hi, > > My name is Tommie, I am new to tthe list...greetings to you all. > I have a couple of quetions. > > Our college network is running on Debian and Ubuntu, we are trying to > migrate the rest of the services to Ubuntu... the Active Directory is > the one that is still using windows.

I itching to be able to finally not use any Microsoft based software on the servers. The Windows 2000 AD just serves logon scripts, group policies and printing. It is safe to assume that all these are available with the latest alpha?
