Re: [Samba] security=server comment

It really didn't strike me at the time, but just tonight as I was in the
process of setting up a new server as a new domain controller on a new
domain, what are we supposed to use for a Samba primary domain controller
if not security=server?


Just use the default setting, which is security=user.
security=server is not for domain controllers.

Thanks for the reply, and yes I know,  I have to stop reading these after
midnight when I've been working all day.  :)

The config on all of my domain controllers is indeed security=user.  Sorry
for the confusion.

[Samba] security=server comment

2008-09-26 Thread Jim Shanks
Whoops, redo on this one, un-configured webmail client get my email
address wrong.  Sorry for the dupe.

I was reading posts on the samba list recently and noticed a comment from
Volker Lendecke.  And as one of the top Samba developers, I'm sure Volker
knows.

For both security=domain and security=ads it is
necessary to join the computer to the domain.
security=server is the only possibility to go without that,
but please be aware that security=server is really highly
deprecated and might have suffered from bit-rot recently.

And if Samba as a domain controller is going to be dropped, can you let me
know now?  Before I get too far into the project and then have to force
them to Windows Server.
