Pretty much.  BSDs and Linuxes are very good at this job.


Does it sound like a bad idea? 


Not at all. Samba is a great tool and you are in the free
software world, that would be great. ;)


Are there tools to set group policies on Windows boxes 
from/through Samba?


Kind of, GPO is not supported by Samba3, you can use
Policy Editor (Poledit) to change a few itens like a NT4
Domain.

There are helper tools like WPKG and proprietary tools
to help you on that matter, you can check also the Samba By
Example book to find more information on the large networks.

Kind regards,

Just for the record, you should use a different DOMAIN
name to avoid conflicts. :)

[Samba] two domains / shares

2006-04-19 Thread ict
hi, 

i would like to know if its possible to make a share on one domain
available to another, currently we have 2 domains a windows 2000 server
and a samba server both as domain masters, is it possible to make a
share available on the samba server available to windows 2000 server.

basically i would like to make the files available to users of the 2000
server from the samba server, this is part of a migration path and would
make things a lot easier.

i am thinking of moving the content of a couple of the partitions to the
new linux server, but want the contents still accessible to the rest of
the network which has not yet moved across.

any suggestions advice or pointers are helpful :)

[Samba] Two domains on same LDAP backend

2005-04-14 Thread Alex Forrow
Hi folks,
I have two samba hosted domains at two different offices. I would like 
them to use the same LDAP backend so that the accounts are exactly the 
same. Unfortunately, it seems that a users SID is linked to the domain 
that created it, so another domain cannot authenticate the user, even if 
it can see it in the LDAP directory, because the user SID doesn't match 
the domain.

My first thought was to use an Interdomain trust, but the Samba official 
guide (http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/) states:

Given that Samba-3 has the capability to function with a scalable 
backend authentication database such as LDAP, and given its ability to 
run in Primary as well as Backup Domain Control modes, the administrator 
would be well advised to consider alternatives to the use of Interdomain 
trusts

I took this to mean that I could have two domains using the backend to 
get the trust, as I am attempting to do.

I have considered using a single domain for both sites, but have decided 
this idea would not be feasible because the link between the offices is 
relatively slow and uptime cannot be guaranteed. I would need to ensure 
computers at one office would only logon to the PDC/BDC at it's side of 
the link. The most important point is that the two offices must be able 
to work independantly when required.

Here is some information about the domains
Redhat 9 with Samba 3.0.2 and OpenLDAP 2.2.23
Fedora Core 3 with Samba 3.0.10 and OpenLDAP 2.2.13
My latest thought would be to set the domain SIDs the same on the two 
domains, could that help?

Any points in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex

Suggest you set both Domain SIDs the same. Did you read the Samba-3 by 
Example book? You can download it from:

http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-Guide.pdf

In particular chapter 6 of the current on-line version.

[Samba] two domains

2004-12-16 Thread eric
Is it possible to have two domains in one subnet?
I have a windows 2000 server and a samba server, but I want Active 
directory running on both, and I don't want them communicating with each 
other.

Also, does Samba need to have a DNS entry for AD to work?
Please please answer me I just want to finish this.
Thank you

You can't run Active Directory on *nix machines.  Samba can only be an 
AD Domain Member server.

and I don't want them communicating with each other.
So build a Samba PDC and don't do any AD stuff.
Also, does Samba need to have a DNS entry for AD to work?
Yes, but you don't want them communicating so why ask.
Please please answer me I just want to finish this.
Finish what?

[Samba] Two domains with the same name

2004-05-26 Thread Rafael Paris
After installing samba-3.0.4 (not upgrade from previous version) i can see
two domains with the same name...
Although one has some extra spaces to the right of the name...
This behaviour is new because I've never seen it before...
