Hello Jane, My first suggestion would be to take a quick survey and try to find if you have any LUG (Linux User Group) in your area. Its also possible you have someone with Linux knowledge somewhere in town you dont know about. There are more people than one think that handles Linux very good. Many of those are not in admin positions but very glad to have the chance to tinker with Linux and make a contribution.
Its much easier to help IRL than to do it over mail. Best of Luck! /daniel ----- Original Message ----- From: Jane Weideman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Edubuntu Mailing List <edubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com> Sent: den 10 februari 2006 kl 8:51 GMT+0100 Subject: [Fwd: Authentication in Ubuntu] <- support request Can someone help please? Thanks JaneW -------- Forwarded Message -------- From: John Atchison <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Authentication in Ubuntu Date: Wed, 8 Feb 2006 19:31:21 -0000 Hi Jane, I hope you do not mind me contacting you but I was looking at the wiki and found the article on Authentication. I have tried on several occasions, unsuccessfully, to authenticate Ubuntu to our Domain. I am not a Linux expert and therefore should be considered a beginner. I work as an IT technician in a High School and am trying to integrate Ubuntu into our system. Our domain controller is a Mac running OSX 10.3. We mainly use PC's in the school and it is the choice of our network administrators to use Mac servers. Is it possible to or will it be in Dapper to get this working? All our pupils and staff authenticate to, and have their Home folder on this server. This has to work without too much configuration if Linux and Ubuntu/Edubuntu (as my preferred distros) are to be used in our school. If you can help/advise it would be very much appreciated, as I am anxious to use Linux in a real world setting.
