We do use SAMBA in the "Dialog" computer class in the Urals State University. The setup is a more or less by-the-book (minus typos) single LDAP-based domain controller. A patched version of LAM is used for administration (but we should definitely use something different, LAM is just too slow with 1000 users). The patch, all configuration files and sample LDAP content will be sent upon request privately. However, I cannot call this a success story. The reason is that operators require re-teaching, and I (as a person responsible for the domain) just receive no additional salary for that additional task. Since even after explanation operators continue to create new users with inconsistent capitalization of names and home directories, I consider migration back to Windows 2000 Server. It's more forgiving. The problem is just how to migrate all the users into Active Directory while preserving organizational units :( Any ideas? -- Alexander E.
