RE: [Samba] Is this possible? (syncing users between a system withsamba 3 on and a win2k3 server)

2004-06-24 Thread Mark Casey
Hi there,

Do you know of any good documentation or books that cover this?

As I said in a previous post I've not used Samba in a few years, so I'd feel
more comfortable on reading up a bit then doing some experimentation in a
test vmware network.

Thanks

Mark

Hi,
it is possible, but you'll have to install some packages manualy by
compiling them for your own. these packages are kerberos and samba, as the
versions in most distros are to old to work correct as an ads-member in
win2k3-ADS. AFAIK you'll have to install MIT-kerberos 1.33 and, at the
moment, samba from svnall other versions do not work. Christoph

Anyway, if I do setup any *bsd or linux servers they will be dedicated to
the task and will not have any additional programs installed.
I would most likely leave the win2k3 server as the PDC, I have heard of some
issues in the past dealing with Samba and it being a PDC.
The situation is that I want to apply the practice of least change, I don't
want to (or feel the network needs to) have a new domain controller.. Having
all machines join the new domain etc.
So, SBS won't allow a BDC?  (suppose I'll have to go and buy it then do some
tests in vmware)
What're saying is that it isn't possible currently with Samba 3 to replicate
users from win 2k3? (without some manual work, is it possible at all to
script any of it?)
Thanks

I would most likely leave the win2k3 server as the PDC, I have heard of some
issues in the past dealing with Samba and it being a PDC.
The situation is that I want to apply the practice of least change, I don't
want to (or feel the network needs to) have a new domain controller.. Having

So, SBS won't allow a BDC?  (suppose I'll have to go and buy it then do some

What're saying is that it isn't possible currently with Samba 3 to replicate
users from win 2k3? (without some manual work, is it possible at all to
script any of it?)
