Ask for help: wiki entry for arch as windows domain client

I think the wiki needs some advice on how to set up arch to be
- a full featured samba domain server
- a full featured windows domain client

I am currently working on a set up to fit my needs, and have some parts finished yet. I need to fix the part for arch replicating windows users from windows active directory, and hope I will complete this issue soon.

If someone will help with knowledge, advice ore debugging, you are welcome.

Re: Ask for help: wiki entry for arch as windows domain client

I haven't done anything as advanced as what you're attempting but a simple migration is documented here:

http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Sam … ation.html

Sorry if that's not much help, I've only used samba as a standalone member server so far - mostly just for extra file storage.  Samba.org does have a lot of good documentation for free though.  Also oreilly has a free samba book here:

It's kind of old though.  Good luck!

Comparing my configurations with samba.org config hints, I see no difference ore complication in doing it for any arch linuxed machine. So, I drop this project, because I see no need for it.
