Subject: [Samba] Samba/LDAP and home dir creation Hi, all.
I'm working on a project to create a Samba PDC with LDAP authentication. I've been pretty successful in getting everything to work. However, I've run into a small snag: The PDC is built on an OpenSuse 11.2 box. Most of the member servers are also OpenSuse 11.2 boxes. However, a CentOS 5.5 server was just added to the mix. While users can lo into the CentOS box, with LDAP providing the creds, no home directory is automagically created as in the OpenSuse boxes. I'd like to fix that, with your help. I've used authconfig-tui on the CentOS box to enable "Use LDAP" and "Use LDAP Authentication" (the equivalent of YAST's LDAP Client config tool?). I believe my smb.conf and ldap.conf files are correct (I'll provide them if you all need to see them). Any ideas? Thanks. Dimitri -------------------------------------- To avoid messing with PAM, you can also do something like root preexec=/data/Backup/createhomes.sh %D %S in your smb.conf and the file "createhomes.sh" looks something like #!/bin/bash if [ ! -d /data/homes/$1/$2 ]; then mkdir /data/homes/$1/$2 chmod g+s /data/homes/$1/$2 chown $2:"domain admins" /data/homes/$1/$2 chmod 770 /data/homes/$1/$2 /usr/bin/setfacl -m g:"domain admins":rwx /data/homes/$1/$2 /usr/bin/setfacl -m u:"$2":rwx /data/homes/$1/$2 /usr/bin/setfacl -m g:"domain users":000 /data/homes/$1/$2 fi exit 0 -=Andrew -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
