Basically, yes. Samba users can be stored in LDAP without Samba Domain. Simply set "passdb backend = ldapsam" and correctly set some parameters such as "ldap admin dn", "ldap suffix" and "ldap user dn" instead of tdbsam or smbpasswd. Also UNIX users can be stored in LDAP with nss_ldap. Remember there are few documents mentioned in such environment. --- TAKAHASHI Motonobu <[email protected]> -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
