I see docs out there on using SAMBA as a PDC and going against LDAP for authentication, but I'm confused. Where pray tell can I find docs on just building a fileserver in Linux/SAMBA that the user authenticates against an external LDAP server in order to gain access to files? No PDC, no domain stuff, just a plain-vanilla fileserver.
The organization is using Windows for its PDC, and probably will continue to do so for some time, so replacing it is of no importance. All I want to do is use *their* LDAP server to authenticate people to access SAMBA fileshares. Everyone uses Win2K & XP clients, and I want to go against the corporate LDAP box to validate when users wish to mount network drives. I'm trying to make a mass-storage server available without all the headaches and $$ of managing a Windows box. Is this possible? Any good links on this for me to dig on my own? Any help would be deeply appreciated! Thx!
