config samba to authenticate users frm AD
Dear All
OS: Suse 10
samba: samba-3.0.22-13.16
I have to configure the samba server, as a file server for windows xp client computers, in a MS Active Directory based network.
All the users have account in Active Directory(the Domain Controller is Windows 2003 server).
Now plz help me how to config the samba, so that when a network user(AD user), access the files/folders on the file server(samba), Samba Server authenticates the user frm Active Directory.
Plz help
Regards

domain controller fqdn is : srv254.mydomainname.com.local
srv254.mydomainname.com.local IP: 192.168.1.102
samba server hostname is: fs1
Ok I have done the following
1, add in /etc/hosts
srv254.mydomainname.com.local 192.168.1.102
2, add the following lines in smb.conf
workgroup = mydomainname
realm = MYDOMAINNAME.COM.LOCAL
security = ADS
encrypt passwords = yes
password server = srv254.mydomainname.com.local
.
.
.
[data]
path = /mnt
read only = no
create mask = 0664
3, create a computer account on Domain Controller
4, then on samba server, ran the following commands
#net RPC JOIN -U administrator%adminpasswd
Joined domain MYDOMAINNAME.
# net ADS JOIN -S srv254.mydomainname.com.local -U administrator
administator's password:
[2007/02/28 14:38:45, 0] libads/kerberos.c:ads_kinit_password(206)
kerberos_kinit_password administator@MYDOMAINNAME.COM.LOCAL failed: Cannot resolve network address for KDC in requested realm
[2007/02/28 14:38:45, 0] utils/net_ads.c:ads_startup(193)
