Hi Everyone, I have a few windows XP professional machine and a inux server running machine with samba, Now, I want to make a centralized XP user's using samba server for user authentication, as we are doing in Active Directory service. In one word I want implement roaming profile. (mean suppose there is user sam, now sam can login from any windows XP machine since samba will manage user informatation and profile along with authentication ) How do I do this? thanks On Mon, Sep 1, 2008 at 1:55 AM, Ralph Angenendt <ra+centos@xxxxxxxxxxxx<ra%2Bcentos@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > wrote: > Fabian Arrotin wrote: > > Hmm, let's coordinate first about Samba .. if there is *one* package > > that can be configured in multiple ways to do the same thing, that's > > surely samba ;-) > > To be honnest, just writing a 'how to create a share on samba' wiki page > > is not enough (my opinion) .. but explaining how to configure the > > backend (old smbpasswd, newer tdbsam, or ldap when acting as a pdc), how > > to integrate in existing Samba/Windows domain/AD , explaining Filesystem > > ACLs . etc .. is duplicating the official howto .. > > Other thoughts on that ? > > Having smacked myself rather often with a printout the official HowTo > collection (and that hurts!), I don't think that you really can do a > large wiki article on samba in general without writing (at least a > chapter of a) book. > > Probably a series of smaller "Tips and Tricks" would be better here, > just like the rpm page. > > So have a TipsAndTricks/Samba page and then have subpages off that, > maybe? > > Cheers, > > Ralph > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS-docs mailing list > CentOS-docs@xxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs > > -- Prabhat http://adminlinux.blogspot.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
