Hello Spyros,

Is Samba the last part that you need to get working? I use the OpenLDAP already for years to connect to several Linux PCs and I can also map the Samba shares on Linux and Windows PCs. I thought that I documented everything but this is not the case :( I know that I have been using Webmin and phpLDAPadmin to do some configuration of the OpenLDAP.

What is your exact problem with configure.pl? I do not remember having problems with this tool.

Regards,

Marco

Hello all,

New to the list, so be tolerant ? :-)

I am trying to build an ubuntu server 12.04 with openldap and samba. I want openldap to handle aspects of the server like having a centrilized user management and samba , naturally, for the shares. In an ideal scenario, I would like this box to be able to authenticate LAN users and create shares depending on each users' priviledges.

Anywhoo, I've been trying to built this for about three months now. I cannot get it to work. At the moment I am stuck on smbldap-tools and the (infamous ?) configure.pl script.

I've tried tons of howto's and manuals on the topic from the net. But once I am stuck, I cannot continue past the aformentioned point.

Would anyone know of any resources out there ? If you have any pointers, please share . . . .

Thank you very much,

spyros
