Hey Guys,
It seems to me that the very best place to store all samba conf options is
in the ldap dir. I got all excited when I was taking a look at the samab3
schema and saw the sambaConfigOption objectclass, found out that is not
implimented yet. Maybe Im being a bit narrow minded to assume that everyone
is using an ldap back end? I like the idea of being able to whip up a very
tidy windows based (MMC?) samba console and requiring only ldap connection
to the server and be able to FULLY control samba. Perhaps smbd could be
setup to be quite particular about when and how it would reaload options
from the directory?
Hope Im not on a different wave length to the rest of you! :)
Cheers,
Rhys
I'm afraid that OpenLDAP (and LDAP in general) is not so popular for
samba...
Also, You can develop MMC snap for managing LDAP samba users and groups
:-) Samba already can store users/groups in LDAP, while general
configuration is just proposed as scheme...

so, if this will be implemented, I can connect with
registry editing tools and remotely manage configuration ?
Yup that was my idea. Each subtree of Samba's registry can
define it's own security descriptor access check. So assuming
that the user meets the appropriate securirt checks, setting a
valuename/data pair would set the 'parameter = value' option
for that section (which matches the registru value's parent
key).
This is a good ways out right now. But if there is sufficient
interest in this kind of thing, I'm willing to work on it.
cheers, jerry
