I am hoping someone can tell me if I am trying something that can't be done.
What I would like to be able to do is setup a Linux file server that Windows users can use, including the use of ACLs. AFIK this should not be a problem. The way I would like to go about doing this is what may be a problem. I would like to be able to add a user to the Directory Server (Fedora) and only via interaction with the Directory Server enable the user to access the Linux file server via Samba. The Samba server would simply be a file server, not a PDC. Everything I have found thus far seems to require that I manually create a Unix account for each user, and then add the Unix user to Samba and LDAP. Is the way I want to do this not possible, or am I simply reading the wrong docs/being a foolish noobie? I should also note that I am not tied to Fedora Directory Server if OpenLDAP can do this but Fedora can't. If anyone can confirm that I can/can not do what I want I would greatly appreciate it.
