Ubuntu Access files on a Windows DC

[bprof]

Hello,

I've been looking around for a way to allow Ubuntu (7.10 server) access Windows domain controller.

I found many guides on how to use Samba with work group, or make Samba a domain controller, but those don't help me do that.

Any help?

Thanks!

I used sadms to join my ubuntu desktop to the domain. Users are authenticated via AD and accessing shares is a piece of cake.

Don't know if you want to put a gui on your ubuntu server to go that route, but if you already have gone graphical, I'd suggest it.

Thanks for your input lazyart. GUI is not an option for me at this time.

Then you need to edit the config file and add the windows domain
