[Freeipa-users] User auth for Samba 3 file server against IPA 3.0.0

[dbischof at hrz.uni-kassel.de]

Hi,

this has been discussed on this list and elsewhere [1], but I'm still a 
little puzzled:

I have IPA running on a CentOS 6 server. This server also acts as NFS- and 
Samba server. My Linux clients (openSUSE 13.1) work fine (NFS, automount, 
user auth for ssh and display manager).

Since I also have some Windows users, I want them to be able to mount 
their homes via Samba using their IPA password. Just that, no AD or other 
fancy stuff.

I read the instructions at [1], which appear to suit my case but at least 
the group.js UI patch is outdated.

Is there a more recent howto to follow? Is patching the source at all 
still necessary? Will doing so break the opportunity to install a replica 
(a step that I have planned but not yet accomplished)?

Thanks for your help.
