Good Morning, I was trying to bind a workstation running SL 6.5 to AD, so that users can login with their AD accounts, and mount a Windows File Share Server binded to AD. After spending a week, I gave up. Steps, links/resources to bind SL will be greatly appreciated. Best Regards, Adil
There is one "gotcha" to look out for: The linux time has to be extremely close to the AD domain controller. if it isn't, linux can't join or authenticate. That out of the way, authconfig-tui is VERY handy... It takes the drudgery out the process. I used to do it by editing a bunch file files, running command line programs and waving dead chickens over sacrificial animals. The utility is faster, easier and less messy. Look into a pam plugin called oddjob. It does the automounting of network shares. yum search oddjob.
