similar to: Samba 3 + LDAP as PDC - which tutorial / HOWTO to use?

Hello, I've been trying to figure out if it's possible to replace Active Directory with Samba (+ OpenLDAP, Kerberos, DNS etc.) on Linux - but from what I've found I'm not sure. Is it possible, or partially possible (I don't need every feature of AD)? What additional software (besides Samba) will I need? What functionality will I loose? Where can I find any

Hi. As you may have noticed, I'm trying to setup my Samba server so that it is the PDC. I'm reading the howtos on http://www.unav.es/cti/ldap-smb/ldap-smb-2_2-howto.html and http://de.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html#SAMBA-PDC . Besides being a PDC, samba should use LDAP as the backend for storing user stuff. The LDAP contains the user/group accounts as listed in the

Hi all, I hoping someone out there might be able to tell my how to configure and Samba box to be a PDC and BDC for a windows network? I'd like to use the LDAP backend, but and too new to the Unix world to understand how this is accomplished. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Charlie

Good afternoon everyone. I'm testing out the new samba 3 (3.0.1 to be exact) with openldap 2.1.22. ( have setup a samba 2.2.8a with openldap 2.0.27 as a PDC in the past) I've read up on a few pages about some of the reqs that are needed: http://www.unav.es/cti/ldap-smb/smb-ldap-3-howto.html I've followed the Samba How-To as well. I edited my slapd.conf file and added the correct

Hello samba mailing list, I'm using samba 3.0.24 on a home server running Debian etch. The server handles authentication and provides samba file shares for a small home network of Linux machines. I recently changed basic login authentication from NIS to kerberos/ldap for the clients. I then decided to switch samba over on the server to use the new ldap authentication backend. The [global]

hi all, i am actually trying to get samba 3.01 (on SLES 8.0) working as PDC with the ldap backend. I have already configured nsswitch to also use ldap for groups and passwords (the root user is still in the /etc/passwd file - i can't imagine that putting the root user into openldap is a really good idea). There is one sentence in the howto

Hi, This is my first post here, so if I make any mistakes, warnings are always welcome. I'm working in an organization and we are migrating are domain controllers from windows to linux. I'm trying to deploy a working configuration of samba. Using openSuSE 10.0. I was following the Keith Robertson's how-to from IBM-Developerworks but in the end; the finished installation fails to

Hi, I have a share: [share] path = /appl/md/data valid users = +asd write list = +asd read only = No create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 And it has directories that have 3000 files in them, but when I look at the same directory thru a Windows 2000, I only see 1360 files, no more. If I type the path a file that isn't shown in the

Hy * I'm searching for Doku acting as an PDC in an Windows environment. I was able to set up the Ldap-Directory itself, storing the Users in the Directory, this all is working. But was not able to let the Workstations join the Domain. Here i don't find Dokumentation about it. Can anyone send me links about Dokumentation about LDAP and Samba, acting as an PDC. Thank you very much

Hi all, I happened to be reviewing a Linux web site that I frequent (http://www.pclinuxonline.com/index.php) and noted today an entry for an article on R at IBM's developerWorks Server Clinic site located at http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-sc16.html. I thought that I would pass this on as an FYI. Regards, Marc Schwartz

Hello, I am hoping someone will offer some help. I'm currently trying to setup a samba 3 PDC with LDAP authentication backend in Fedora core 1.

Hi all, I've dug through the lists and google, but haven't found very much info on using Citrix with a samba PDC. The small number of messages and information I've found, lead me to believe it will work. Does anyone have any first hand knowledge they'd be willing to share? I'm currently involved in rolling out Citrix for proprietary windows apps for remote offices.

Hi there, I'm in the process of installing Centos 5.2 on an IBM x236 w/ ServeRAID 7k I recently acquired to act as a samba file server. The hardware has all passed various stress tests I could throw at it so we're okay there. My question is. Has anyone had any luck getting the latest IBM ServeRAID Manager v9.0 working in CentOS? If so how? ServeRAID Manager is based off Adaptec's

Hi, I just wanted to let you know, that I've written a HOWTO on Samba and Kolab integration. In other words, I tried to explain, hopefully in an easy way, how to add Kolab groupware functionality to an existing Samba/OpenLDAP setup - so that both Samba and Kolab users would use the same credentials. You can find it on http://wpkg.org/kolab Of course feel free to comment :) -- Tomek

I currently have a data frame with a Fund ID and NAV value. Is it possible to order the data frame and move to separate columns in a new data frame or matrix in R without using a for loop? I suppose I'd like to use a built in function to make it faster because I will have around 60,000 entries to sort and my current program takes too long to do this. I know how to use order, but is there a

Hi list, the IBM developerWorks article (*1) about KSM (kernel samepage merging) states that "XEN calls it Memory CoW". Now I''ve searched a bit forward and backward but was unable to find any information about such a feature within XEN. Can you enlight me?

I am in the process of authoring a Samba-LDAP-PDC HOWTO for Mandrake users that will allow cross platform ( Linux / M$ ) network user authentication. Lastnight I ran rpm --rebuild --with ldap samba-2.2.7a-2mdk.src.rpm and it produced a list of packages that I needed to install in order to compile this version of samba. I did so but I neglected to write down the list. I did the install of

Hi all- I've configured samba (3.0.0 rc4) with ldap (openldap 2.0.27-8) (and when testing using 'net groupmap list' I'm getting the following errors: Failed to bind to server with dn= cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=org Error Can't contact LDAP server (unknown) Lib/smbldap.c:smbldap_search(924) smbldap_search: LDAP server is down!

Hello all! I have the following problem with the %in% command: 1) I have a data frame that consists of functions (rows) and genes (columns). The whole has been loaded with the "read.delim" command because of gene-duplications between the different rows. 2) Now, there is another data frame that contains all the genes (only the genes and without duplicates) from all the functions of
