CIFS Server acting as an Active Directory Service (ADS) Member Server
ADS Member Servers use LDAP libriaries and Kerberos security to access ADS Domain
Controllers' authentication services. Therefore, LDAP-UX Integration and HP Kerberos Client
Library products are required. See Chapter 5 “Windows 2003 and Windows 2008 Domains” for
details.
Workgroup Model Networks
HP CIFS Servers configured with server mode security will attempt to authenticate Windows
users on the server specified. If LDAP is enabled, then authentication will fall back to the LDAP
server if the server mode authentication fails.HP CIFS Servers configured with share mode
security may replace smbpasswd with an LDAP directory server.HP CIFS Servers configured
with as stand-alone user mode servers may replace smbpasswd with an LDAP directory server.
UNIX User Authentication - /etc/passwd, NIS Migration
HP UNIX user authentication is required in addition to Samba (Windows) user authentication
for HP CIFS Server logon. You can consolidate Samba and UNIX users into a single LDAP
directory server database. However, the /etc/passwd file or NIS database files can continue
to be used for UNIX users if desired.You can use migration scripts provided by HP to migrate
the /etc/passwd file and NIS database files to the LDAP directory server. For more information
on the migration scripts, see “Migrating Your data to the Directory Server” .
