The Samba team needs greater recognition for the services they make to open source. Linux is on the verge of being able to replace m$ servers by running AD DNS itself.
But clients did authenticate to the domains.
What I did not make sure is if the DNS could always track the clients. I think that when someone logged in, the machine was counted in the DNS. This can not be replicated with bind, AFAIK, and is perhaps the reason that the samba folks think of another dns daemon.
Yes it can and is replicated in bind. The Samba team sent patches to bind which enabled it to do so. They are included as of bind9.8. We have the dlz patches working fine. win 7 clients use bind as their DNS and Samba4 as their AD, all under openSUSE. One of the points of this thread is to enable our Linux clients which are on the same lan, work as the windows clients do and get rid of that awful 127.0.1.1
Nearer to undestanding. Thanks again. L x
