Hi Samba/Active directory List Can any one please let me know, how can i authenticate a user on Samba Machine via Active Directory. Let me describe my question in more detail. I have Active directory as a domain controller on widows 2003 Server on the same network I have Linux machine that is running the Samba server under the domain contrller of Active Directory. I have list of registerd user on Active directory but all of them is not having the account on Samba machine, how can rest of the user who is not having linux account on Samba machine can access the shared folder on Linux (Samba server).
Example, if x, y, z are the registerd user on Active directory and in the same Domian I have Samba server. I have created an account for x (Add user ) in Linux Samba machine, now x is able to access the samba server from any machine to linux. but rest of the other user (Y and Z) can not access the Samba server thoug they are registerd in Active directory as the same previlege ad X. Suppose If i have a 1000 of account in Active directory then I have to create 1000 of account in Samba server to make them eligible to access shared folder on Linux is it the case.... While in windows-XP enviroment and one of the registerd user in Active Directory can access any one Machine in same domain.. Kindly teach me...
