This is the beginnings of how to setup Samba as a network
appliance.
This directory provides build tools for building a Samba based domain
appliance.
A appliance is a box that gets its username and group database from a
domain controller, and does its authentication via a domain
controller. Right now this is only supported by combining two CVS
branches of Samba, which is what the files in this directory do.
To setup an appliance do the following:
1) build and install Samba using the .spec file or Makefile in this
directory.
2) setup winbindd by following the directions in the winbindd man
page.
3) test winbindd, validating that domain users and groups are visible
and that domain authentication works, both using unix tools and
smbclient.
for appliance printing support also do this:
4) create a print$ share with write permission for print
administrators.
4) create the "nt printer driver" directory (by default
/usr/local/samba/lib/ntprinters) and make it writable by print
adminisrators.
5) populate your /etc/printcap printer database
6) add printers using the NT "add printer wizard" in the Printers
network folder.
