Dear all
I have setup FDS for samba backend but i dont know how to
add machine account in FDS it is possible through script or manaualy...
Better you add it through scripts. The GUI interface for FDS is not so
sophisticated to add samba machines through simple clicks, you should
have to have a lot of clicks.
I use a simple script as below. This is used against an openldap
server, but there is no reason for this not to work with FDS. Define a
base id at /etc/samba/machineid before you start the script.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cat addmachine.sh
#!/bin/bash
uid=`cat /etc/samba/machineid`
nextuid=$(($uid + 1))
echo $nextuid > /etc/samba/machineid
read -p " Please enter the machine name (If your windows system name is
dhcp6-120.pnq.redhat.com, please only enter dhcp6-120 : " choice
/usr/bin/ldapmodify -a -x -H ldap://10.65.7.98 -D
cn=admin,dc=samba,dc=redhat,dc=com -w redsmb << EOF
dn: uid=$choice\$,ou=Computers,dc=samba,dc=redhat,dc=com

Other choice is to use smbldap-tools scripts as you may wish.
Hi
Is The above script is used to first add the computer the FDS and then go
the system and add to the samba domain.
Not sure if the above script can be mentioned in smb.conf
No, You have to slightly modify the script if you want it to be added to
smb.conf. You need to remove the promtping and pass the $1 as the
machine name.
--Sadique
" add machine script = /tmp/myscripts/addmachine.sh"
But if smbldap-tools are used then machine can be added in fly.
But there is alternative to smbldap-tools also ,
The recent http://fdstools.wiki.sourceforge.net/ which can be used to do
the following
