Sorry - I'm a domain admin where I work, I always forget that not everybody can add users to an NT/Win2K system. You do need a tame sys admin for this. -----Original Message----- From: Ralph Clark <ralph_clark@bigfoot.com> To: suse-linux-e@suse.com <suse-linux-e@suse.com>; kmoore@aa.net <kmoore@aa.net> Date: 06 March 2000 03:59 Subject: Re: [SLE] Samba and Windows 2000
I just got this working myself. Ironically it's a lot more complicated than setting Linux up as a Samba server! Here's what you do if another (Windows) machine acts as the Primary Domain Controller and password server (as opposed to using the Linux box itself for those functions):
(i) Choose a unique Netbios host name for your Linux box.
(ii) (Logged in as root) install Samba on your Linux box, configure /etc/smb.conf appropriately, including your chosen Netbios hostname and the IP addresses of the PDC and password server, set START_SMB="yes" in /etc/rc.config and run SuSEConfig.
(iii) Get the NT Sysadmin to register your NetBIOS hostname on the PDC.
