Hello,
It's there for all 3.xx versions, it will be removed from the future
versions and continue as an standalone project. (3.0.23 i guess)
you have to compile samba with expsam mysql.
(be sure you have the development package from mysql installed)
you could use the ldap backend, coz it's more stable, and has more options.
Cheers

Hello Collen,
Thanks for your reply.
Let me ask another question on this.
Is mysql support for samba as backend is not there for
all other current available versions(like versions
before 3.0.14) or is it only not work the versions
range you specified.
If it is not there i'll move to ldap support.
Regards,
Krishnam.

Well hello,
samba prior to version 3 doesn't support the
pdb_mysql backend.
perhaps there is a way around, but i don't think so.
dunno what's your idea of samba & mysql, coz in your
list you mention
pam-mysql ??
my guesses are that pam-mysql is for the support of
storing posix users
in a mysql database, not samba users.!
if you need mysql to store samba users, convert to
samba 3, and wait for
the next release.
(coz from 3.0.14 - 3.0.22 the mysql backend is
broke.)
at the moment there is a project at sourceforge
trying to make the mysql
backend work again. (
https://sourceforge.net/projects/pdbsql )
but it won't be able to run until 3.0.23 (i guess)
Cheers & Have Fun
Collen Blijenberg.

Hello group,
I Just joined the group and this is the first
message
to this group.
I am facing a problem while configuring mysql
backend
to samba.
I am using samba 2.2.7,
mysql 5.0, pam-mysql-0.5 and RH9.
Is it possible to set mysql backend for
samba2.2.7?
Pls explain the way to configure mysql to samba as
backend.
