[Samba] Configuring Samba as a file server to use AD authentication
Fair point on Ubuntu. Though, there is no value added by mentioning that as I am already seeking help here. :-) What I was searching for was 'how to start winbindd' which doesn't provide any valuable excerpts beyond that. Upon rebooting the machine winbindd is not operating all the same however, so I am puzzled why this is an issue for me. -----Original Message----- From: samba [mailto:samba-bounces at lists.samba.org] On Behalf Of Rowland Penny via samba Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2016 12:06 PM To: samba at lists.samba.org Subject: Re: [Samba] Configuring Samba as a file server to use AD authentication On Thu, 25 Aug 2016 15:29:46 +0000 Kyle Manel via samba <samba at lists.samba.org> wrote:> Thanks for the information, > > I am unclear how to implement the winbind 'rid' backend.

I think the problem is that Debian uses a script called 'samba', this starts two other scripts 'smbd' and 'nmbd', it does not start winbind. I think if you look, you will find there is another script called 'winbind', guess what this does ? ;-) Do what ever you do to start samba, but replace 'samba' with 'winbind', it should then start. I haven't a clue how you start packages on Ubuntu now, I don't use it. You could always reboot the server, just like the person in your link did, this is what started winbind, not the join.
