I'm straddling the half-way point between samba and ldap. When adding a
machine to the domain, functionally, it works like you would expect. You
enter in the domain, enter your credentials, and reboot. The computer is
able to function as a machine on the domain.
I'm using the smbldap-tools as suggested in the wiki. Here's the script:
add machine script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w -g 100 -c "Workstation
(%u)" -d /dev/null -s /sbin/nologin "%u"
When checking on details of the process:
# getent passwd
biggie$:x:1008:100:Workstation (biggie$):/nohome:/sbin/nologin
(works for me)
# getent group | grep users
users:x:100:
(the machine is not listed as a member of the group)
Should machines be displayed as a member of the group they are added to
like users?
ldapsearch -x -b "dc=ptest,dc=us" "(objectclass=*)" | less
# machines, ptest.us
dn: ou=machines,dc=ptest,dc=us
ou: machines
objectClass: organizationalRole
cn: machines
(the ou that biggie is added to)
# BIGGIE$, machines, ptest.us
dn: uid=BIGGIE$,ou=machines,dc=ptest,dc=us
uid: BIGGIE$
objectClass: sambaSamAccount
objectClass: account
displayName: BIGGIE$
(biggie's ldap entry)
