kind of trying to make a appliance, the main application is a
groupware(open-xchange), it authenticates against a ldapserver, then I
integrated a jabber server (wildfire) allso authenticates agains ldap.
Then I know that you could get samba to authenticate against ldap, so
then I thought I give that a go.<br>
<br>
If i just makes some shares and give users access everything works as
expected seen from the Windows client side, I'been struggeling for a
long time to make a windows w2k pro to join the samba domain, then I
just thought I would try to make a XP client join the domain, and I was
so supprised when it get joined. I think what made the trick was
configure bind to know about the samba PDC, then I really dont
understand why I cant join a W2k client to the domain. I've googled
around for hours tried all kind of configuration in samba. Still no
luck. I tried enabling wins on samba, and the w2k client can
access samba with the netbios name. The reason i want to get that
working is coz of centralized policys and logon scripts. And of course
it need to be stable :-)<br>
