RE: [Samba] NIS authentication on samba

I think I am bit confused here. we don't have any Window PDC or BDC we just authenticate users from our NIS group when they try to map Unix drives in their Windows systems. So would password encryption work with the above setup. I believe the alternative would be to use ldap Sheikji Nazirudeen IT

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? From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Sheikji Nazirudeen Sent: Thu 6/23/2005 2:30
