Re: [newbie] Setting Samba acts like DOMAIN for local intranet.

2001-12-25 Thread Michael Viron

It's actually smb.conf, not smb.cfg.

In order to run samba as a Primary Domain Controller (PDC) you must:

1. Be running samba 2.2.x or later on the linux server
2. Have accounts for all users in your company on the linux PDC, or
appropriate lines in /etc/samba/smbusers

As for setting it up, try taking a look at http://www.samba.org for
step-by-step instructions and / or the file /etc/samba/smb.conf (which
contains all the stuff (albeit commented out) that you need for a
samba-based PDC).

You can also send questions regarding specific problems to the list, of
course.  Although we don't mind helping you, you need to do a little
research / setup yourself first.

[newbie] Setting Samba acts like DOMAIN for local intranet.

2001-12-25 Thread Tuan Tran

Hi,
Before, I setup Samba for my local intranet. At that time, I setup at
workgroup mode an now I want to setup at DOMAIN mode. It mean everyone
on my local network (using Windows) MUST log on to this server. I don't
know where do I start (I never try this before). Do I have to setup my
Linux SERVER act like DOMAIN controller first? How do I write down on
smb.cfg file(global declaration)? Or if you can please send me a sample
of smb.cfg file. 
Thank you
Tuan
Ps. I know how to setup windows clients access to domain.
