oh u are joining a linux client to Samba PDC. You don't have to? For what purpose ? Authentication? Then configure LDAP (/etc/ldap.conf) Use command "authconfig" for redhat to configure LDAP or yast in Suse and then add an entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf
yes, for authentication purposes wherein a user can log into any linux client pc in the computer laboratory. i already added the usernames in the samba PDC. do i need to do it also in the linux client workstations?
actually it is a mixture of window$ and linux client workstations but i'm focusing on the linux clients.
no, i do not have ldap as passdb backend. it's passdb backend = tdbsam that is in my smb.conf
ok, i will have to read the links. thanks, will post my smb.conf tomorrow.
