From: Jeremy Allison In order for a Samba-2 server to join an NT domain,
- you must first add the NetBIOS name of the Samba server to the
- NT domain on the PDC using Server Manager for Domains. This creates
- the machine account in the domain (PDC) SAM. Note that you should
- add the Samba server as a "Windows NT Workstation or Server",
- NOT as a Primary or backup domain controller. Assume you have a Samba-2 server with a NetBIOS name of
+>Assume you have a Samba 2.x server with a NetBIOS name of
SERV1smbpasswd -j DOM -r DOMPDC
- Administrator%password as we are joining the domain DOM and the PDC for that domain
(the only machine that has write access to the domain SAM database)
- is DOMPDC. If this is successful you will see the message:
pam_smbpass.so module is provided by -Samba version 2.2.1 or later. It can be compiled only if the ---with-pam --with-pam_smbpass options are both -provided to the Samba configure program.
--with-pam_smbpass options when running Samba's +configure script. For more information +on the pam_smbpass module, see the documentation +in the source/pam_smbpass directory of the Samba +source distribution.Distributed Authentication
PAM Configuration in smb.conf
The following smb.conf parameters are considered to be depreciated and will -be removed soon. Do not use them in new installations The following smb.conf parameters are considered to +be deprecated and will be removed soon. Do not use them in new +installations |
Here are the possible scenarios for supporting migration:
If you do not desire the new Windows NT - print driver support, nothing needs to be done. - All existing parameters work the same.
If you want to take advantage of NT printer - driver support but do not want to migrate the - 9x drivers to the new setup, the leave the existing - printers.def file. When smbd attempts to locate a - 9x driver for the printer in the TDB and fails it - will drop down to using the printers.def (and all - associated parameters). The make_printerdef - tool will also remain for backwards compatibility but will - be moved to the "this tool is the old way of doing it" - pile.
If you install a Windows 9x driver for a printer - on your Samba host (in the printing TDB), this information will - take precedence and the three old printing parameters - will be ignored (including print driver location).
If you want to migrate an existing printers.def - file into the new setup, the current only solution is to use the Windows - NT APW to install the NT drivers and the 9x drivers. This can be scripted - using smbclient and rpcclient. See the - Imprints installation client at http://imprints.sourceforge.net/ - for an example. -
