similar to: Using WINBIND and the latest samba 3

I have looked a bit through some of the archives for this list, and I have caught different ideas on this matter.. I've also read through the HOWTOs on how to do this stuff, but I haven't received the same results that I was expecting, so I need someone to help me out a bit, give me a definite YES or NO and if YES, how? I have the latest release candidate of samba 3 installed on redhat-9.

Could anyone give me some hint on how to get winbindd working ? I have added the following to smb.conf , called smbpasswd to join the domain and got security=domain working. security = domain encrypt passwords = yes workgroup = MYDOMAIN password server = x.x.x.x But when I try to use winbindd, even if I followed the man page instruction and did the following: added the following to smb.conf:

I am in the process of investigating whether it's viable to replace our NT server domain with a linux server domain using SAMBA. The key is if Samba can act as a PDC, with other Samba BDCs in remote locations.

I would just like to give a success report, since this list gets mostly bugs and questions.. Due mainly to the help that this list provided, I am now able to successfully deploy Linux/Samba servers in our corporate domain, and allow remote offices to function as part of our vast windows domain. Things are working, and the $$$ it has saved us is almost unmeasurable. Again, thanks for your help,

I'm hoping this is an easy question, but the way my day has gone I seriously doubt it is going to be. Today, I installed Samba 3.0.24 with winbind support on my FreeBSD 6.2 server. I am able to join my domain and get information concerning groups and passwords from the domain controller (Windows 2003) without any problem. Where I have run into a problem is using getent to get a copy of the

However, If I change the host value which is *hosts: * in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file to *files dns wins *and restart the server everything runs perfectly, when the alignment of

Basically, I'm trying to create a fileshare "files" that people can transparently log in to from NT4 and Windows 2000 workstations. My boss has approved the use of Linux for the server, but only if I can make it
