How to get Samba 3 (alpha's at this stage) working nicely with a [LDAP] backend. Samba 3 allows samba accounts to not have corresponding unix accounts. This is the first time a samba has allowed this. However, I've not set it up so I won't go into that. So this will - at first anyway - discuss setting up Samba 3 + LDAP in an environment where you already have LDAP handling your unix accounts. See [LDAPNotes] for information on that. I downloaded the source .deb package from sarge for the latest samba 2.999 build (3.0 alpha 21 or something). It builds fine under woody, there were no sarge-specific dependencies. Now go and read the excellent [LDAP-SMB-2.2/HEAD HOWTO|http://www.unav.es/cti/ldap-smb/ldap-smb-2_2-howto.html]. As I don't have much time atm, I'll leave it here. I know this page contains nearly 0 content, but I'll pad it out when I get more time. ---- Samba 3 is in the final beta stage, they are about to start releasing RC's. It has much better ADS support, and also boasts a completely rewritten ldap schema, just to annoy those early adopters who played with the alpha series. They *do* provide a script to convert the two however :) ----- Just stumbled upon this link: http://homex.subnet.at/~max/ldap/ for Samba and LDAP
