I only dabbled with that, so I can't speak to it. I'll take your word for it. :) > Not to mention tdb corruption ... Yah, the TDB implementation doesn't scale well at all. It is a "trivial database", after all. Using a "real" database backend is recommend for anything beyond a couple dozen users. I believe LDAP and some of the SQLs are both options. > ... anything that could wrong making you have to redo your work, ughhh... That I find to be an odd statement. I never had to redo much with Samba. I generally found it pretty easy to track most stuff. The config is in a text file that can be easily put under revision control. I find that in stark contrast to MS Windows, where everything is hidden in the registry, and it's a common practice to nuke the *entire OS* to fix problems. > I wish ...
