Hi, I've just migrated NT domain to samba+ldap - works great, but there is one thing I don't quite understand:
What is the reason to have a 'computer account' on host UNIX serving samba? I know, that NT PDC needs ID+password for each computer within its domain. But samba TDB or LDAP pwdb backend look quite sufficient. I don't see a reason to have those exposed (shadowed) as UNIX accounts - are there any? In other words, I don't see any activity, that NT domain computer does *on*its*own*account* - e.g. as UNIX process - on samba server. Is there any? Is there any other reason to have UNIX account ID for NT domain computer? (I have already tested a setup, where all NT domain coputers share common home directory, and it looks like nobody makes any attempt to write there - so that feature of UNIX account does not look necesary) Thenx, -R -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
