Components for Windows Domain Model
HP CIFS Server supports the NTLMv1/NTLMv2 security used for NT domain membership and
Kerberos security used for Windows 2000/2003 native membership, so HP CIFS Servers can be
managed in any Windows 2000/2003 ADS, Windows 200x mixed mode, or NT environment.
HP CIFS Server does not support a true SAM database and can not participate as a domain
controller in an Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows 2003 domain. HP CIFS supports
winbind, which can be used to avoid explicitly allocating POSIX users and groups for Windows
users and groups mapping. Winbind provides UID and GID generation and mapping for Windows
users. Set smb.conf parameters to idmap uid = <uid range> and idmap gid = <gid
range>. See “Winbind support” (page 97) for detailed information on winbind. When you
deploy multiple HP CIFS Servers, you can use the LDAP directory to maintain unique ID maps across
multiple systems. idmap=rid is a smb.conf parameter. To centralize management of ID maps
in an LDAP directory, set the idmap backend parameter to ldap:ldap://<ldap server
name> in the smb.conf file .
You can use wins server = <Windows or NT WINS server address> smb.conf
parameter for access throughout a multi-subnetted network. Avoid using the WINS server supplied
by HP CIFS if Windows or NT WINS servers are available, because HP CIFS WINS servers cannot
replicate the WINS data.
"LDAP-UX Client Service with Microsoft Windows 2000 Active Directory Administrator's Guide",
available at http://docs.hp.com, provides help for HP-UX ADS client configurations.
An example of the ADS Domain Model
Figure 9-7 shows an example of the Windows 2000/2003 ADS Domain Model which has the
realm named HPCIF23DOM.ORG.HP.COM, an ADS domain controller machine hpcif23, an HP
CIFS Server machine hpcif54 acting as a native member server and the Netscape Directory
Server system hptem128.

A sample smb.conf file for an HP CIFS ADS Member Server
The following is a sample Samba configuration File, /etc/smb.conf, used for an HP CIFS Server
machine hpcif54 acting as a ADS member server in the sample ADS Domain Model shown in
