Domain Member Server
Configure the HP CIFS Server as a Member Server
When configuring HP CIFS Server to act as a domain member server,
you need to configure the relative domain parameters in the
/etc/opt/samba/smb.conf file by using the SWAT tool or an editor.
The smb.conf file is shown as follows:
• The smb.conf file is as shown if the HP CIFS Server acting as a
member server does not use the LDAP backend:
[global]
workgroup = NTDOM # Windows NT or Samba Domain name
security = domain
password server = DOMPDA
encrypt passwords = yes
netbios name = myserver
• The smb.conf file is as shown if the HP CIFS Server acting as a
member server uses the LDAP backend to store UNIX and Samba
account databases:
[global]
workgroup = NTDOM # Windows NT or Samba Domain name
security = domain
encrypt passwords = yes
passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://ldapserver:389
netbios name = myserver
NOTE workgroup: This parameter specifies the domain name of which the HP
CIFS Server is a member.
security: When the HP CIFS Server joins a domain as a member, this
parameter must be set to “domain”.
password server: This parameter defines the NetBIOS name of the
PDC machine which performs the username authentication and
validation.
