Questions about smb.conf

Chris.Marsh · 12-10-2005, 11:37 AM

Can someone clear up a couple od points on the 'smb.conf' file, I'm trying to get my SlackWare Box authenticating with a Win2K3 DNS Server, in the smb.conf I have

[global]

workgroup=domain
security=ads
realm=domain.ext
password server=server.domain.ext

Is this correct, I'm not too sure if the realm parameter sholud be? domain.ext or server.domain.ext pointing to the DNS Server...

Thanks in Advance...

Havn't fooled with samba for a while but IIRC, you're right it's

Code:

realm = DOMAIN.EXT

(seem to remember needing it in caps)

hope this helps,
