Samba server: Sharing files with Windows clients

[Blackburn, Marvin]

We are working on something very similar to this.  I had the same type
of questions.
Since we had a very limited rollout, I really didn't want to add my
Linux-cifs server to the domain because I wasn't sure of the
consequences (both technically and politically), so we just do
authentication locally -- this requires the user to have a
username/password on the server and does not involve AD.

I'll be glad to share my smb.conf file.  I'm still working out some
messages in the /var/log/messages file, but it looks as if its working
to some extent.  We are in the testing phase.

Subject: Samba server: Sharing files with Windows clients

Hi.


I have a RHEL 5 that I'd like to set up as a Samba server, in order to
make
som directories available to Windows clients. The windows clients are
all
controlled by Active Directory.

Is it so that my linux server need to be set up with Kerberos in order
to
get things working, or is there a simpler way of doing this?


Best regards,
Kenneth Holter
