What I want it to do is use samba to authenticate linux clients like I do with
NIS at the moment. There are no users apart from root on the clients and /home
on the server is mounted as /home on the clients by NFS. The kde login screen
on the client displays all the users on the server.
Using yast windows domain membership on a client I cannot check the box 'Use
SMB information for Linux Authentication'. I get the error: 'Cannot use the
workgroup 'hh1' for Linux authentication.'.
All linux users on the server have been given samba passwords and I have tried
the server and client with firewall enabled and disabled.
My question is: can samba do what NIS/NFS does at the moment?
The answer is yes. Even if you've not asked this is done with Samba's
winbindd which is configured via the YaST 'Windows Domain Membership'
module.
