If you figure this one out, please let me know. I've been trying to do 
this for at least a year now with no luck.

I suppose you will have to add some scripting to manage the Linux 
clients. A script could ask the NT PDC about the user's home, and 
then mount it directly through nfs.


So the question for this list would be: how can I query a Windows NT 
PDC (no ldap) about a user's home directory. That script may need to 
have an administrator password to be able to query the PDC.

RE: [Samba] NIS authentication on samba

2005-06-23 Thread Ian Dees
Why not use winbind? If that doesn't suit your needs (maybe you need to 
authenticate with both NIS from a UNIX box and Samba from a PDC) then try 
combining them together with LDAP?

Hello all,
   I am currently using NIS for authentication with clear text
passwords. We would like to move to password encryption. Any ideas
whether NIS would support encrypted password on samba 3.X ? if not what
would be my other options.

RE: [Samba] Re: After Winbind Login, Mounting SMB Home Dirs?

2005-06-22 Thread Ian Dees
Sounds like you're suggesting mounting the share as an exported /home with NFS, 
right? How are permissions handled then? Will user WINDOWS-DOMAIN\userA on 
LinuxBoxA have the same UID/GID as on LinuxBoxB?
 
Thanks for the tip,
Ian

We've always had a linux server do this hard work, doing Samba/smb for
Windows clients and NFS for linux clients.  I've seen/heard-of
file-locking issues when trying to use smb shares for user home directories.

[Samba] After Winbind Login, Mounting SMB Home Dirs?

2005-06-22 Thread Ian Dees
Hi list,
 
How would I go about mounting samba home directories from a Windows file share 
after a user authenticates with winbind?
 
Here's my situation: I have a lab of 25 Linux boxes that currently use their 
own system for authentication on a campus that uses Windows Domain Controllers 
for student logins everywhere else. I have successfully set up domain logins 
using winbind on the Linux clients, but now the students need access to their 
H: drives for class work and sharing files between windows and linux sides.
 
So far, every windows/Linux single-sign-on HOWTO I've seen has done an 
excellent job at describing how to set up winbind auth, but then they stop 
short at mounting home directories and print shares, both of which I would like 
to have.
 
Any tips?
 
Thanks,
Ian
