hello,

For my study I must test Windows Clients and Linux Clients on Samba 4.

I need a advice.
- What backend shall I use TDB or Openldap ?

1 ) TDB backend
- Windows authenticate and authorize with Kerberos and PAC to samba-kdc
- Linux Clients authenticate with PAM to SAMBA-KDC and authorize with 
NSS_LDAP Modul to LDB.

- Does LDB provide TDB Backendinformation  as LDAP Services for Linux ?


Openldap backend ?
- Windows authenticate and authorize with Kerberos and PAC to samba-kdc
- Linux Clients authenticate with PAM to SAMBA-KDC and authorize with 
NSS_LDAP Modul to slapd openldap server
