Topic: joining RHEL4 onto smeserver domain

[trystnw]

Hi
Does anyone have a decent tutorial for joining rhel4 workstations to the smeserer domain. Tried mounting shares with smb4k and ran into a host of permission related issues. Users on the local machines on which the shares are being mounted don't have root permissions. Did the necessary configuration for mounting using sudo from from within smb4k but am unable to write into the shares

Any help will be really appreciated

Thanks

Do you ever try winbind and pam_mount ?

For some reason, i am unable to install Pam_mount via yum from the dag wiers repository. Manual installation is a pain . I have to do this on 50 machines. Also, there is existing data on the local machines. If i join these guys to the same server 
domain, then i am going to have to copy all their stuff from their existing home directories to the new home directories. Their needs are simple. They need to be able to access info on the i-bays with a username and password. Any straight forward method without them authenticating into the smb domain at login, but authenticating on the shares when required would be perfect.

Thanks

I used Centos 4 with KDE 3.5.7, when access ibays directory authorization dialog will appear.
