Dear Francesco, I have never used the helper provided by Samba, and I am not willing to start using it. I don't want to install Samba on a proxy server, maintain a smb.conf and TDB databases there, join a domain, see hundreds of winbindd processes etc. The ntlm_auth plugin has always been sufficient for my needs. I hoped it would continue to be usable, but something is broken in it. I would be glad to migrate to Kerberos though, if I can only make browsers use it. No success so far. If anybody can help with it, I would greatly appreciate. Kinkie wrote: > er.. are you not using the helper provided by Samba?
