Hi, This may be a dumb question (I'm new with this), but is it possible to use SAMBA in combination with LDAP in a Workgroup? All the manuals and examples I can find, are talking about Domains and PDCs. I have to set up a new Samba server and checkout LDAP but I'm not allowed to change the Workgroup settings...

List, I'm having trouble accessing shares, and I'm getting conflicting indications on whether I've successfully joined the domain with my PC and Samba server (which may bear on the share problem). I really could use some help; I've not been able to recognize anything in the docs or via Google that helps. I'm running SUSE 9.3 and Samba 3.0.21a, and I'm trying to

Hello: I have set up samba and webmin on my Mandrake 9.2 system (P4 1.7GHz, 512Mb RAM, 60G HD).
