I have a problem I'm hoping someone can help me with. I have a user account for batch processing on a Linux AS 2.1 server (irxbatch) that needs to be added to a corporate Active Directory security group (we'll call it 'app_users'.
I'm running Red Hat Linux AS 2.1 on an Intel based HP 1550 server. The server is running Samba 3.0.2a which was obtained from the www.samba.org site and installed from an rpm. I then configured the server to authenticate the samba shares (we're not using Samba print services on this server) against the Active Directory Domain server. This has been working for several months now and works great. I wrote a perl script that cleans up the data in one of the shares but it is failing to delete the files or directories because they are now owned by users in the Active Directory domain and also are assigned to the security group ('app_users'). The job is running from the irxbatch (user id) crontab and our sys admins will not allow it to run under root (and I don't blame them). So, the question is: How do I add the local user account (irxbatch) to the Active Directory Domain and to the application security group (app_users)?
