Hi all, I'm about give up on this Ubuntu SSO setup - I haven't been able to get any solution to work so far. I have looked through Bernd's notes, Steve's notes, and the Ubuntu Community SSO. I think it is because most of the howto's are old and may not work with a Ubuntu 12.04/samba4 + Ubuntu 12.04 client setup. I can only get the windows SSO to work with samba4 which is quite easy compared to getting a Linux SSO to work at all. I feel I am so close to getting it to work after understanding how kerberos works. I think I'll try a dns/kerberos server/openldap sso setup via Ubuntu Community SSO without samba4 and see if I can get that to work.
Thanks for all the help so far. br, Quinn On Thu, Jul 12, 2012 at 1:22 PM, Quinn Plattel <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I think it is great that samba4 has a single sign on solution for Windows > platforms and it seems to work well too, but I am wondering is it possible > to do the same for a Linux environment?
