Hi,
I'm new to the list (and samba). It's a great technology and I look
forward to learning more about it.
I have an OS X Server that utilizes the built-in Samba to allow for
Windows client connectivity. The OSXS gets the majority of its users
from an LDAP server elsewhere on the campus.
On OSXS, it's expected that the Windows users will be local or that
the server will be a KDC or that the server will be bound to an AD.
Regrettably, my server is not bound not an AD, nor is it a Kerberos
KDC for the University and the users are not local but from the
campus-wide LDAP server.
The only option I can think of for Windows clients to use Samba is to
re-kerberize the Samba service itself to the University KDC. I can
get the keytabs. However, I've been told by folks on other lists that
there on some tweaks on OSXS that make Samba configuration a little
different.
You can definitely configure Samba to talk to the campus-wide LDAP
server to resolve user names. Check the official howto and the "by
example" books on samba.org.
Does anyone here have experience (re)kerberizing Samba on an OSX
Server? Or any suggestions how I could solve this conundrum I'm in?
Or, if I'm misunderstanding something about how Samba works?
AFAIK, windows clients will only do Kerberos authentication to AD
member servers.
