Good evening everyone:
I am struggling with a problem here.
I have a brand new FC3 server set up. My Windows domain is a windows 2003
active directory domain.
I have samba configured as below
[global]
netbios name = SRVWEB-01
server string = MCA Production Web Server
printing = cups
idmap gid = 15000-20000
password server = srvdc01
idmap uid = 15000-20000
workgroup = MCASCHOOL
os level = 20
winbind trusted domains only = yes
winbind use default domain = Yes
security = domain
realm = srvdc01
[webroot]
comment = Websites Home Directory
writeable = yes
path = /var/www/html
[ftp]
comment = FTP Home Directory
path = /var/ftp/pub/
read only = No
I followed the set up as specified in the how to section at:
http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/FastStart.html#id2536544
I followed the procedures as specified in that document to make a domain member
server:
Everything appeared to work correctly
when i try to browse to the server from my windows XP Pro station, the server
shows up in the server list, when i click on it -- it asks for authentication,
but then wont accept any -- i give it my domain admin, my personal user, etc.
As i understand it, i should not have to create a linux user for each of my
domain users, that should be handled by samba, as it looks at the domain users
list and provides authentication.
Previously when i have had this problem, i have had to create a user in samba
(system-config-samba) and manually set their samba password to the same as
their windows password. THis just does not seem right, and it makes a huge
security hole.
When I look at the samba users list, there are none -- but i think that all of
my Active Directory (domain) users should be listed
Can someone please set me straight. I am not looking for someone to provide a
turnkey solution, but rather someone who can work with me to help me
troubleshoot this problem so that I can get this working. This is a test
deployment preparatory to doing the full up one on the file server.
If you need any further information, please feel free to e-mail
thanks very much
