You should be able to use FreeBSD's Samba and OpenLDAP port without issue. I haven't used Samba with LDAP (probably Active Directory in your case), but I know it's supported. As for connecting Windows clients, Samba does include a NetBIOS nameserver with WINS support.

But the issue is, how we get it all in one package? and join all windows clients into Samba Domain? I hope someone can help me up with this. Over the summer I implimented this exact setup, an MS Windows domain without any MS Windows servers, for a company of about 1000 users. There are some pretty serious draw-backs to not using MS Win 2003 as your domain controller, but with the right tools you can get pretty close; and the advantages of not using MS Windows make up the rest of the difference. Check out the how-to documents posted by others, if you have any specific questions let me know, I may be able to help. ( I didn't/don't use Kerberose, yet.) P.S. This is not an easy thing to set up. I'm not aware of any easy ldap servers so you are probably going to end up doing a lot of development work on your ldap schema, importing users, and setting up your local directory before you even look at samba. I spent about four months on my system and I had a working, although very badly constructed, system to start from. -- -- Perfection is just a word I use occasionally with mustard. --Atom Powers-- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Directory server
Step by step if you wanna use Kerberos.. http://www.bayour.com/LDAPv3-HOWTO.html If you wanna use nss_ldap http://www.cultdeadsheep.org/FreeBSD/docs/Quick_and_dirty_FreeBSD_5_x_and_ns s_ldap_mini-HOWTO.html Personally I prefer nss_ldap. Kerberos is more secure, but it's a bit of rocket science to set up. and also you can use this client http://www.ldapeditor.com to manage the users in openldap. It's the best free ldap browser/editor and user management program available. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:owner-freebsd- [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of rithy4u- CEO Sent: October 1, 2006 8:26 PM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Directory server Dear All, I am seeking the way how to implement FreeBSD+LDAP+Samba to build a file server for medium size business which will serv up to 60 concurrent users.
