Short of invoking the ldap beast...can just unix pwd/account info be used? When my unix login creds are the same as my samba acct (and they are)...it would be nice to not have to maintain separate-but-equal pwd files (smbpasswd and /etc/password).
You're kind of implying two separate/different passwords. Is samba keeping the passwords in a different format? mike -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Chris Mason Sent: Saturday, September 20, 2003 4:01 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Is there a way for Samba to authenticate via PAM? You can use LDAP. I've done this and it works very well. There's still a NT and unix apssword, but it's all in one database.
