What are the software requirements to add ADS support to Samba?
From compiling it on my own I had to add OpenLDAP & Kerberos, although
I was never able to get the 1st versions of Kerberos 1.4 to work.
So, it means if we add optional build support via OpenLDAP & Kerberos
you are contributing the HOWTO which describes how to get this stuff
working under run-time? Just kidding ;-) If time permits I'll look how
to add build-time support to the Samba package. If you wish to help,
feel free to figure it out in advance and present a patch which adds a
"with_ads" build-time option to the "samba" package.
PS: I'm just curious: What does "ADS" stand for? I thought Active
Directory has the official MS abbreviation "AD". What does the "S"
stand for?
I'll do what I can. I believe ADS stands for "Active Directory
Services", stolen from Novel's NDS. What I will try 1st is to get Samba
to compile against the OpenPKG OpenLDAP & Kerberos rpm's. Once that
works incorporating the build-time support should be easy.
