Howdy Gents,
I've set up 2.0.7 as a PDC for a small lab of NT4 machines.
We use NIS (not NIS+) for 'authentication' for our Unix machines.
Is there any way to set up a smbpasswd file (or configure samba) so that
Samba authenticates against the NIS password instead of the NT hash in the
smbpasswd file?
In other words, I can't logon unless I (manually) set my smbpasswd to match
my Unix passwd. I would like to roll this out as transparently as possible.
Has anyone else been in a similar situation?
Thanks!
Tim
