I have had tremendous success with Winbind and NT Domains. Refer to chapter 20 of the Samba-HOWTO-Collection.
Once Winbind is configured in NSS, and some changes are made to smb.conf, Samba will recognize the NT Domain and then will allow access to shares based on membership in an NT Global Group. Chapter 20 will give you everything you need to make this work. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 06, 2004 11:37 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Samba] smb.conf question Please share a little more information.
