I thought that webmin would be a good front end for learning. I'd like to set up a windows file share on Samba and authenticate native windows accounts possibly through openLDAP. I'm wondering if someone else has done this and might be willing to give me some pointers. |

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605 <== let's you create accounts on Ubuntu and then you have the user type it in on Windows to gain access, however it's not exactly what you want.
this might help though: http://islandlinux.org/howto/installing-sa...openldap-ubuntu -------------------- |

May or may not be useful...but my entire home network uses nfs only, and I communicate and function fine between linux and windows machines. I find samba a bit like driving a tractor to a sport car rally.
