Over the last week I have been doing quite a bit of work with SuSE, Samba3 and OpenLDAP. I must say although difficult to setup the first time it is really nice to have all your user accounts managed from one central location. I have just installed a new SuSE server running this combination into a clients office and it is looking very good indeed. All of the basic work is done all that needs to happen now is get all the Windows machines bound the domain and install the printer drivers onto the server for painless printer adding.
Some useful links I have found to help set all this up are:
Setting up Samba3 as a PDCHow to create a PDC with Samba3Samba Logon Scripts
Update: Getting the machines on the domain was simplier than I imagined. Everything seems to be running very well so tonight I will give the
Samba-Vscan module a go. If this works out I should have server side anti-virus scanning of my Samba shares thanks to
ClamAV.
