[Samba] Winbind pdc bdc problem
Do I need to use winbind between pdc and bdc if I'm using LDAP backend? I have a PDC setup with LDAP master on backend and a BDC with slave LDAP in another building.I'm just having a problem with getting users to authenticate and use the BDC for home directories and exactly how to have W2k clients join the domain.. The BDC is in another building (connected by a slow connection) so it needs to have a copy of LDAP for authentication purposes. I've tested LDAP replication and it works fine and receives updates from the master. The PDC does everthing that it should. I can join W2k clients, and users can get to their home directories. My problem is in Samba and how to configure the BDC for users to use it. System description RedHat 8.0 LDAP 2.1.23 Samba 3.0 Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. -- Kent L.

On a Samba DC, Winbindd is only needed when the DC's have established trusts with other domains (and you need winbindd to generate accounts for the trusted users and groups). - -- ciao, jerry ~ -- ~ Hewlett-Packard- http://www.hp.com ~ SAMBA Team -- http://www.samba.org ~ GnuPG Key http://www.plainjoe.org/gpg_public.asc ~ If we're adding to the noise, turn off this song --Switchfoot (2003) -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE/3x5NIR7qMdg1EfYRAu0aAJ0bf1xldkSU72onr/iL1l9wl70n1QCfTi+f pj/6UNQJrMakJb0dUhTVO1E= =nmX/ -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Thanks, guess I don't need it then. I wasn't quite sure what the full function was for winbindd.
