Hi list,
since SuSe9.x it's possible to authenticate the linux-users not only via NIS
or LDAP, but also with a samba server.
The only thing left to do - besides enabling it in yast - is edit the
"smb.conf":
[global]
workgroup = domain-name
security = domain
encrypt passwords = yes
idmap uid = 10000-20000
idap gid = 10000-20000
template shell = /bin/bash
template homedir = /home/users/%u
template primary group = "Domain Users"
So, with this setup, linux login is possible but:
1. the uid/gid is not the real one! Typically it would be 100,101,... not
10000,10001,...
Will this be a problem for the mounted samba-shares? Or do these numbers
even correlate with each other? (linux <-> samba)?
2. the home-dir is not the right one (-> /home/users/user-name), it should
be something like /home/users/goupe-name/user-name
3. How should Linux automatically mount the users samba shares? Without it,
there is no KDE login, nor can the user access his files or the
files from his group.
So how to enable/configure automount?
thx in advance for any help or pointers,
Markus
