I'm using the above version of Samba with OpenLDAP. I also use the smbldap-useradd script to add users, like below. I'm finding that I also have to have an account in /etc/passwd for the user to get in otherwise I get the message below. I thought that the ldapsam:ldap://localhost/ would not require the /etc/passwd entry. What did I miss? # Adding a User (doesn't work)

Hi, I have an existing SAMBA setup on a file server, for the purpose of managing file shares, and that alone. I now wish to move my authorisation over to LDAP. I have had little effort in finding any solution that doesn't involve setting samba up as a PDC. All i require is SAMBA to authenticate users against LDAP. Any help is greatly appreciated :). Many Thanks Richard

Kernel 2.6.38 has adopted a format called XZ for kernel use, as well as some filesystems. Format appears to be optimized for streaming and embedded use. I'll happily test it if anyone wants to plug in some code for it. http://tukaani.org/xz/format.html http://kernelnewbies.org/LinuxChanges -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
