Samba 2.2.1a in WinNT domain

[Michels, Gustavo [EES/BR]]

Hello,

Samba 2.2.1a does not have winbind. You have to use CVS sources, either
SAMBA_2_2 or HEAD tags. I use SAMBA_2_2.

To download the cvs source:

$ cvs -d :pserver:cvs at pserver.samba.org:/cvsroot login
(pass is cvs)

$ cvs -z3 -d :pserver:cvs at pserver.samba.org:/cvsroot co -r SAMBA_2_2 samba

Then you should have the source code with winbind. Read the mail archives or
the winbindd man page, there are plenty of posts showing directions of what
you do next.

cheers
Gustavo

Hello,

I would prefer to use winbind for authentication. I have spent time reading
over the articles in at marc.theaimsgroup.com  but still am confused.  I
have configured samba-2.2.1a.tar.gz --with-pam --with-winbind.  Did a make &
make install. After a search over the hdd there is no winbind file. Assuming
that I need to download winbind I looked over the samba download site.
Unsure what to download???  There was mention about HEAD & CVS & TNG but all
I need is winbind.....  Can someone point me to the correct file that I need
to add onto samba to talk to NT DC's?  I'm lost.

TIA,
Bill

Hi,

You have two directions, either use winbind or smbpasswd file. Using the
first one, you pass all the authentication process directly to the NT DCs
using linux PAM. The other way you still authenticate the users with the NT
DCs but you must create a local account for each user that will be connected
to the samba server.

Look the FAQs and HOW-Tos for more info. Also searching the mail list
archives (marc.theaimsgroup.com) is a good starting point. Then you come
back with problems you may encounter.

Cheers
Gustavo

 I'm trying to add a RH 7.1 Linux/Samba PC into a WinNT domain.  The PDC is
WinNT and I would like for all users to be validated on that PC or two other
BDC's.  The Samba box is a member of the Domain but it is inaccessible by
any of the NT/98 servers or workstations.  I have tried using the "net use"
command to map a drive to the Linux share but that doesn't work either. It
returns an error.  The Samba box can be seen through MS explorer but cannot
access it.  A "ping" to the box returns no errors.  Can someone point me in
the direction of where the problem may lie. Thanks, Bill Markley Network
