Yeah - its just for me to use, not for public consumption. Its four 300 (okay, 287 Gb) drives in a raid0. I also have weekly tape backups as an off-site.

It's not perfect - I don't think that there's any checking - but username and groups are preserved as Domain+login.name:Domain+Domain Users, so samba is part way there. It's not the best of solutions, but out here I'm under the odd constraint! The end goal is to validate everyone aganist the Active Directory entries, now that Billy boy has published a standard ldap access mechanism ( cough cough ). Does it work any better through samba? As my disks aren't even 80GB, I can't comment on your nfs problem! Cheers, Steve On Mon, January 31, 2005 1:29 pm, C.
