[Samba] non-local accounts...

2004-10-14 Thread Michael J Wilson
I am having problems, can join domain, add users, etc, etc no problem 
using samba 3.0.6 and ldap 2.2.17, have the ldap working fine with samba.

The problem is that I cannot get this to work without having local unix 
accounts.  We are setting up a domain between 32 locations  (zero 
budget) , and of course want to just have our ldap directory replicate 
itself, not have to add local users.  Totally unix pdc/bdcs, not active 
directory at all.  

What is the easiest way to add ldap users without having to add local 
accounts as well?  smbldap-tools is giving me
failed to perform search; No such object at 
/usr/local/sbin//smbldap_tools.pm line 229, DATA line 283
errors, even though the conf files seem correct in every which way.

Any help would be appreciated.

Every Samba-User must have a Unix-Account, but you can manage Local- and 
Sambaaccounts in one LDAP-Tree.

In the most Samba-LDAP-PDC-HowTo's you can read, that you have to 
authenticate the Unix AND the Samba by one LDAP-Tree.
The LDAP-Tree manage every Unix and Samba-Account in one container.

Please look at this:

I use the web-based-Software LAM (http://lam.sourceforge.net/) to manage 
my 500 Unix- and Sambaccount Users.
