Hi all Is possible to perform a logon from a XP workstation to a Samba3+LDAP managed domain with a smartcard? I've readed somewhere that this is not possible with Samba3, but /could/ be possible with the Samba4 package. Thanks

How can I give a user account the ability to join or add computer to the domain? Below are the steps I did but none work: 1. Edit smb.conf file and add the following line. # domain administrators domain admin group = root user1 user2 @sysadmin domain admin users = @sysadmin I have a group called "sysadmin" on my /etc/group profile and added both user1 and user2. 2. Map

Hi all! I've a running Samba PDC (LDAP backend) with windows clients. All the users are in the LDAP, including the 'guest' user. All except the 'root' user which is a regular user. Then change in the smb.conf ldapsam:trusted = yes ldapsam:editposix = yes and noticed some speed-up when listing groups, look file ownerships, and so on. But I can't add machines to the

Hi! I have a domain with samba+ldap working perfectly. The LDAP and Samba are in a linux vserver machine, but in the main host, not in the guests. The machine has samba 3.0.22 and debian sarge 3.1 up to date. Last week I try to assign privileges to different users with the 'net rpc rights' command and found a strange behaviour. ('asier' is a local user without privileges, not

Hello! I've a Samba server (3.0.22) acting as the PDC of the domain. The network is made of one Debian server and ~12 Windows 2000/XP client machines. I use OpenLDAP as backend with TLS security and works perfect. Now our office needs to connect to other offices in physically different locations. It would be great to use the same LDAP backend across all the offices using it's

Hi! Perhaps this is not the appropiate list, but I need some advices. I have a working Samba PDC with a LDAP backend over a secure TLS connection, with W2000 and XP clients. I've readed in a lot of places that Kerberos is a very nice thing to have in the setup but I cannot see why. I know the foundations of kerberos but I can't see how much "value" will add to the setup.

Hi all! I have to join some remote offices and share the userbase. Some offices must have it's own domain (same enterprise group, but different company). For this offices I plan to make a trust relationship between domains (W2003 <-> Samba and Samba <-> Samba) and for the others (same company) perhaps I have two alternatives: + Implant it's own domain and make another

Hi all! I've a computer acting as a PDC in a network with Samba+OpenLDAP working fairly well ina Debian Sarge for several months (Samba servers, XP cients). It's working so well that my company wants to deploy this system to all the offices (five offices physically separated). Each office has it's own peculiarities so each one has to have it's own domain with shares and so on.
