#Winbind

#Samba #Winbind, is there a way I can authenticate using pam_winbind to the local passdb backend?
I.e. no domain join, just workgroup authentication?

@hl @TomAoki @peteorrall @xdydx You can run #samba perfectly fine on #FreeBSD, I have one instance running here as an "Active Directory" domain controller, one as an #SMB fileserver, and quite a few for the client parts of a domain member (with its #winbind).

What you can't do in a "good" way is mounting SMB shares on FreeBSD. The SMB client in base is horribly outdated (really really never use #SMBv1 these days!), and outside base, only stuff on top of #fuse is possible.

Looking for info in AD and using as a file server.

RHEL docs seem to say is the preferred way to join domain, but they don't explain how to use sssd and NOT for

Can you use smb file shares with WIndows permissions and not use the winbind method to join AD?

Some #Samba magicians here?

I want to have #winbind authenticate local accounts against samba tdbsam.
This works, up until winbind resolves the domain name as netbios name, which then fails in pam_unix.
