Hi all, It's a bit off topic, but apparently JCal's calendar format is properly digested by Outlook clients. Could this be the solution to the problem? Chris -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Forgive me for being dense, but shouldn't I be able to configure a Samba 3.x server (on Solaris 8) to authenticate against an Active Directory server -- if all the users already exists in AD -- _without_ creating them on the Sun box, and without adding the posix user field to the AD record? Sorry if this is in the docs -- I'm still a little at sea. yes you can do that (i think) - using winbind brad -- Bradley W.

I now have a machine configured as a domain controller authenticating all windows users via openLDAP. openLDAP is also authenticating all of our linux users. I would like to install Exchange2000 on a windows2000 machine so our windows users can do calendaring (sendmail already handles all of our email needs).

I would like to keep our current authentication system in place but also allow our windows outlook users to do calendaring. will samba 3.0 (alpha, beta or final) make this possible? i found some text related to this in the alpha folder and under 3.0/WHATSNEWS.txt: Active Directory support. This release is able to join a ADS realm as a member server and authenticate users using LDAP/kerberos. don't use active directory unless you really need it. better yet don't use exchange - you'll be sorry. It's byzantine and they rape you on the licensing fees... Instead use a web groupware suite like phpgroupware like i do (which can use the ldap db for authentication) People like the outlook integration but I don't think it's worth the time or trouble. brad -- Bradley W.
