Hello,
I have a question about machine accounts.
I using Samba 3.0, OpenLDAP 2.1.30 and Berkeley 4.2.52 on backend on
RedHat machines.
I also have 3 slave/BDC's and 1 master/PDC
Right now all of my users and groups exist entirely in the LDAP directory.
I have a few accounts in addition to the normal system accounts that are
used for emergency access. All authention and group enumeration uses
PAM_LDAP with NSS_LDAP.
My question is that when I have a machine join the domain, in the LDAP
directory an objectclass Account and sambaSAMAccount are created. I still
need to create a machine account in /etc/passwd for this to happen. Is
there anyone out there that is first creating a posixAccount with
appropriate attributes in LDAP then using the Samba/Windows to generate
the sambaSAMAccount object and attributes in LDAP also?
You shouldn't need anything in /etc/passwd. Perhaps by posting an
smb.conf you could be pointed in the right direction.
I was so happy to get all of the user/group stuff consolidated into the
directory. Now I see that this is a possibility also but I haven't tried
it.
