Learn Linux, 302 (Mixed environments): Winbind
|
|
If your network includes a domain controller (either a Windows computer or
a Samba server), you can use its user database instead of or in addition to maintaining local
login users in a Linux computer's local account database. Doing so requires using a set of
tools known as Winbind. This toolset can be handy even for Linux computers
that don't run Samba to share files or printers; users with Windows domain accounts can
log in at the console or use SSH to access Linux-only features, use POP or IMAP mail servers
with Windows domain authentication, and so on.
