HP CIFS Server 3.0i Administrator's Guide version A.02.03.03

• Provide the following information if you choose to use the Windows Active Directory Server
(ADS) realm:
— the name of your realm
— the name of your Domain Controller
— administrator user name and password
— LDAP-UX Integration product is installed
— Ensure that the most recent Kerberos client product is installed
For detailed information on how to join an HP CIFS Server to a Windows 2000/2003 Domain
using Kerberos security, see Chapter 5 “Windows 2000/2003 Domains”.
• Select the following authentication security type if you attempt to use the workgroup
environment:
— Server-level security: When this security type is specified, password authentication is
handled by another SMB password server. When a client attempts to access a specific
share, Samba checks that the user is authorized to access the share. Samba then validates
the password via the SMB password server.
NOTE: HP does not recommend you use the server-level security type, this security
type will be unavailable in the future.
— User-level security: When this security type is specified, each share is assigned specific
users. When a request is made for access, Samba checks the user's user name and
password against a local list of authorized users and only gives access if a match is
made.
— Share-level security: When this security type is specified, each share (directory) has at
least one password associated with it. Anyone with a password will be able to access
the share. There are no other access restrictions.
• Run the Samba configuration script using the command below.
/opt/samba/bin/samba_setup
The script will modify the smb.conf file according to the information that you have entered.
Step 3: Modify the Configuration
Configuration Modification
HP CIFS Server requires configuration modifications for the following functionality:
• Case Sensitivity for the Client and Server for UNIX Extensions
• DOS Attribute Mapping
• Print Services for version A.02.02
• Distributed File System (DFS) Support
• Configure MC/ServiceGuard High Availability (HA)
Configure Case Sensitivity
By default, the HP CIFS Server is configured to be case insensitive, like Windows.
NOTE: HP recommends that when using CIFS Extensions for UNIX, both the CIFS Client and
Server be configured to be case sensitive.
For the CIFS Server, edit the server configuration file: /etc/opt/samba/smb.conf as follows.
case sensitive = yes
