Topic: Add a new file Server

[laurie_lewis]

I have my gateway setup with users etc and working fine as a PDC.

Can I add another SME server with just file sharing setup but use the groups/users set up on the first computer?

Not without substantial modifications, which as far as I know nobody has designed.

Very easily done by modifying the template so it reads as follow:

You can configure Samba to use a separate password server under server-level security with the use of the password server global configuration option, as follows:

    [global]
        security = server
        password server = server1

Where server1 is your PDC

I suggest you read the note at http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/ref-guide/s1-samba-security-modes.html before you use this feature (at the bottom of the page, 14.4.5)

Thanks genzil,
Not much information but the Domain Security Model also works fine :)
