[Samba] Samba and LDAP - which attributes are mandatory which optional

[Daniel Müller]

Hello Götz,

A short explanation

sambaAcctFlags:[W]-Workstation, [U]-User. String of 11 characters surrounded
by square brackets [ ] representing account flags such as U (user), W
(workstation), X (no password expiration), I (domain trust account), H (home
dir required), S (server trust account), and D (disabled).
sambaHomeDrive: forces the [homes] mapped to a certain Letter (ex: S:).
Refer to the “logon drive”.If empty smb.conf
sambaHomePath: your.homes.path. if empty smb.conf [homes] path is used
sambaKickoffTime: Specifies the time (UNIX time format) when the user will
be locked down and cannot login any longer. If this attribute is omitted,
then the account will never expire. Using this attribute together with
shadowExpire of the shadowAccount ObjectClass will enable accounts to expire
completely on an exact date.
sambaLMPassword: Lan Manager Password
sambaLogoffTime:
sambaLogonScript: your.logon.script. if empty smb.conf netlogon script.
sambaLogonTime:
sambaNTPassword: Stores the passwords auto. Do not touch
sambaPrimaryGroupSID: The primary Group SID auto. Do not touch.
sambaProfilePath: The Profile Path. If it is empty taken from smb.conf. Not
needed if you do no profiles.
sambaPwdCanChange: need to be 0 or 1. 1 user can change password
sambaPwdLastSet: counts the last set of password automatically. Used for
your password policy. The integer time in seconds since 1970 when the
sambaLMPassword and sambaNTPassword attributes were last set.
sambaPwdMustChange: You must set to 0 or 1. 0 the user must change his
password needs: sambaPwdCanChange =1. On some distributions you also need
to, sambaPwdLastSet=0.
