domain login

#1 Post by jonorr267 »

I have samba running as a PDC serving some win2000 machines and a couple of linux boxes.I have been searching for some way to set the linux boxes(sarge) with domain logins rather than having to add all users to each machine as I would like to add some more linux machines.
Does anyone know if this is possible/could point me in the right direction?
Any help greatly appreciated.

It all depends on how you set up your Samba-PDC. If you're using LDAP as a database backend for Users and Groups, then you just have to install nsslib-ldap and libpam-lap on the Linux clients and set them up to use your LDAP backend.

If you're using the tdbsam backend on Samba, you're in for a ride, because you'll have to use winbind et al.
