RE: Samba on Solaris
Hello Tom Thanks a lot for your information, Yes, you correct, we've spent a lot of money to buy Bill Gates's products. Now, due to cost reduction, gradually we're migrating to Linux and I hope we're supporting by RH community. Thanks again!

The locations of the Samba files are different because Red Hat nicely integrates Samba into the OS. On Solaris, the default is /usr/local/samba. You may need to write or customize the /etc/init.d script, depending on which version of Samba you install. I used Samba on a dual processor Sun Enterprise 450 with 120 home directories and 40 shares with a variety of security permissions. This same server also ran a Lotus Notes email server. It proved to be Microsoft virus proof and ran for months between reboots. Samba is very efficient with system resources, so performance was excellent. Solaris dedicated one of the processors for running the Notes server, so file/print requests were fast and reliable. If someone from Red Hat is listening, I've been running Red Hat since version 5.2. I'm on 9.0 now, and I use the boxed version for my workstation that doubles as a Samba domain and file/print, DNS, DHCP and NFS server. It also runs Win4Lin so I can support my "legacy applications." If you take those functions out of the lower priced distributions (call it workstation or whatever), you take away my primary training tool. I can't afford to buy Enterprise to run at home on a two or three user network. If you want us to install a licensed Enterprise version in the server room, I'm OK with that. We'll buy it with the hardware. But please don't cripple the low end boxed versions. You'll cripple my training program if you do. Please don't act like Microsoft and try to drain our wallets through licensing costs. Tom Thomas S.

If you need the cheapest solution, sell all that stuff and get things that are all the same. Or do it by hand. Is there any authentication mechanism which all those OS's support, anyway? How in the hell are you going to get Linux, OS/2, VAX/VMS, WinNT, et al. together? Every single one of them has a different security model. And why are you doing all this? If you haven't realized this by now, there is no way I can help you... I have no knowledge of how to do this, and my current limited level of knowledge would suggest that it probably can't be done at all. I'm just curious as to why you're embarking on such an ambitious quest with (apparently) so little knowledge to start. -- Rodolfo J.

Thanks, btw we need the cheapest solution..SAMBA isn't good enoug for this ? I just want using RH as the domain controller, but I'm still not clear enough using SAMBA at other platforms side.Need your help. -Original Message- From: Rodolfo J.

So, either you go out and spend many thousands of dollars on high-end management software like Tivoli, or there is no way to do what you want. (And even if you spend many thousands of dollars, I am not sure if there is a way to do what you want.) -- Rodolfo J.

How to integrate all systems?
Dear all, I have NT, Solaris, OS/2, VAX/VMS and also RH8 My question is, how to make those system integrated in one domain. I want to administrate them in single server. Thx a lot.
