Hi, I noticed that some freeradius.org howtos suggest to specify a "password server" in Samba when using ads security:
http://wiki.freeradius.org/FreeRADIUS_Active_Directory_Integration_HOWTO http://deployingradius.com/documents/configuration/active_directory.html Why should one do that, especially if the samba docs say "Use password server option only with security = server"? Besides, if I comment out "password server =", specify "realm = MYDOMAIN.ORG" and then define the AD servers in krb5.conf one per line: kdc = server1.MYDOMAIN.ORG:88 kdc = server2.MYDOMAIN.ORG:88 then authentication via AD is as expected. I'm just curious to know why these howtos suggest to specify a password server when using ads security in Samba. Thanks, Vieri - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
