Figure 37.2 Providing Administrator Credentials
Your server is now set up to pull in all authentication data from the Active Direc-
tory domain controller.
37.7 Migrating a Windows NT Server
to Samba
Apart from the Samba and LDAP configuration, the migration of a Windows NT
server to a SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Samba server consists of two basic steps.
First, migrate profiles then migrate accounts.
37.7.1 Preparing the LDAP Server
The first step of your migration should be the configuration of the LDAP server. You
need to add base DN information and entries for accounts of your software clients with
passwords. Detailed information about LDAP configuration is provided in
LDAP—A Directory Service
It is not necessary to configure it all manually. You can use scripts from smbldap-tools.
These scripts are part of the package samba-doc and, after installation of the package,
are available in /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/LDAP.
NOTE: LDAP and Security
The LDAP administration DN should be an account other than Root DN. To
make the network more secure, you can also use a secure connection with TSL.
