Folks,

I am attempting to get an install of Samba authenticating against a Sun DS as a "stand alone" smb server eg. non PDC. I have the host OS ( solaris 10) properly configured to authenticate against the directory, the directory schema modified to accept the PosixAccount and SambaSamAccount objectclasses, smb.conf configured and in place and a test user in place as well.

My two question(s) are:

What are the minimal directory account attributes needed to get a user to authenticate? eg my understanding is that many of the attributes are used for a samba server acting as a PDC, which in my case are not needed.

My user base in the DS allready exists, so I will want to just add the extra necessary object classes and attributes to the user's existing entries. What mechanism determines what the sambaSID and sambaPrimaryGroupSID values are ? I am unclear how these values are derived and what they are based on. Realize my users already have passwd's in their entries that I am hoping
to not have to change.

any help is appreciated!   -john
