[Samba] Samba 3.0 as ADS domain member (atleast).
Hi all, I am trying to set up a Samba 3.0 beta, as an additional domain controller on a domain that has a windows 2000 (ADS integrated) DC. I would like some pointers on how I could achieve this; I am to understand that there may not be tried-and-tested howtos but, even some raw documentation in that direction would do. The closest I got was the Chapter 8 (Samba as a ADS domain member), bundled, in the documentation with the, distribution. This document I followed but, on trying net use * \\sambaServer\shareName, it asks me for a password, inspite of a successful './net ads join'. 'klist tickets' tells me that 'klist: No credentials cache found (ticket cache FILE:tickets)'. After some googling, did add 'winbind cache time = 10', but it didn't help the situation. Kindly help.

[Samba] Samba 3.0 != ADS, whats missing?
Hi all, I have been reading throught the manual that accompanied the Samba 3.0(beta) distribution. I am unable to understand ... Samba-3 is capable of acting fully as a native member of a Windows 200x server Active Directory domain. However, please be aware that Samba-3 support the MS Windows 200x domain control protocols also. At this time any appearance that Samba-3 is capable of acting as an ADS Domain Controller is limited and experimental in nature. In a less protocol and more application perspective, what are the features (relatively important) that a Samba (only, if that is possible) DC (with ADS features) would be missing? Thank you.

The feature people would miss most would probably be group policies. We have good single-sign-on facilities, and good integration with Unix. Management tools exist, but you can't use the all the Microsoft tools in quite the way you could with native AD. Most of the rest we can do with the NT4 protocols, which seem to work quite well. Andrew Bartlett Does this mean that I can replace a DC (with ADS) with a Samba box without Win2k/XP (professional) users, finding a difference (getting around the group policy, I look at, as an administrative difference)?
