This will not let you authenticate ssh users just a plain samba server for your windows clients. Requirements Shell access is assumed. You should perform the following as root. Installation First we going to install all the required ports so make sure your ports tree is up to date. The name of the server is serv01 The domain name is doublel.local So the FQDN is serv01.smbdomain.local Thus my /etc/hosts file looks like this ::1 localhost localhost.smbdomain.local 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.smbdomain.local 192.168.50.195 serv01.smbdomain.local serv01 192.168.50.195 serv01.smbdomain.local. We need to install the following ports: 1. /net/openldap24-server 2. /net/samba3 (should work with samba32-devel also) 3. /net/nss_ldap 4. /net/smbldap-tools Openldap backend server You can accept the default selected options # # cd /usr/ports/net/openldap24-server make install clean Samba # # cd /usr/ports/net/samba3 make install clean Select the setting below +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Options for samba 3.0.32_1,1 | | +----------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | [X] LDAP With LDAP support | | | | [X] ADS With Active Directory support | | | | [X] CUPS With CUPS printing support | | | | [X] WINBIND With WinBIND support | | | | [X] ACL_SUPPORT With ACL support | | | | [X] AIO_SUPPORT With Asyncronous IO support | | | | [ ] FAM_SUPPORT With File Alteration Monitor | | Buy Low Cost NTP Servers Ultra-precise GPS/IRIG Synchronized Network Time Servers For Your Needs www.BrandywineComm.com/products Precision Feed Drives Small Wire, Tube, & Narrow Strip 2,4,6 Roll & Belt Style Drives www.takenterprises.com Bolts - Screws - Fastener Over 75,000 Items Listed on Website Inch, Metric, Standards, Specials www.MutualScrew.com /Guides/FreeBSD/Networking/ | | [X] SYSLOG With Syslog support | | | | [X] QUOTAS With Disk quota support | | | | [X] UTMP With UTMP accounting support | | | | [ ] PAM_SMBPASS With PAM authentication vs passdb backends | | | | [ ] CLUSTER With experimental cluster support | | | | [ ] DNSUPDATE With dynamic DNS update(require ADS) | | | | [ ] EXP_MODULES With experimental modules | | | | [X] POPT With system-wide POPT library | | | | [X] PCH With precompiled headers optimization | | | | [ ] MAX_DEBUG With maximum debugging | | | | [ ] SMBTORTURE With smbtorture | | +-+----------------------------------------------------------------+-+ | [ OK ] Cancel | +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ Install nss_ldap # # cd /usr/ports/net/nss_ldap/ make install clean Install smbldap-tools # # cd /usr/ports/net/smbldap-tools make install clean Configuration Prepare the openldap config file (/usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.conf) First we need to create a password for the openldap server # slappasswd -s very-secure-password {SSHA}2pCGrVMhMh3cC+LakUXApebb9jwICf5e Note: Copy the output!! Open the /usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.conf file and make sure it looks like the following # vi /usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.conf # # See slapd.conf(5) for details on configuration options. # This file should NOT be world readable. # include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/misc.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/openldap.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/samba.schema loglevel 256 pidfile /var/run/openldap/slapd.pid argsfile /var/run/openldap/slapd.args # Load dynamic backend modules: modulepath /usr/local/libexec/openldap moduleload back_bdb ####################################################################### # BDB database definitions ####################################################################### database bdb suffix "dc=smbdomain,dc=local" rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=smbdomain,dc=local" #rootpw = very-secure-password rootpw {SSHA}2pCGrVMhMh3cC+LakUXApebb9jwICf5e directory /usr/local/var/db/openldap-data # Indices to maintain index objectClass eq index cn pres,sub,eq index sn pres,sub,eq index uid pres,sub,eq index displayName pres,sub,eq index uidNumber eq index gidNumber eq index memberUID eq index sambaSID eq index sambaPrimaryGroupSID eq index sambaDomainName eq index default sub Now we need to create and copy some files. First, we want to create the database dir of openldap. In this case this is /usr/local/var/db/openldap-data. If you want another location change the directory directive in the slapd.conf file. Also we set the right permissions on the directory and files of openldap. # # # # # # mkdir -p /usr/local/var/db/openldap-data cp /usr/local/etc/openldap/DB_CONFIG.example /usr/local/var/db/openldap-data/DB_CONFIG chown -R ldap:ldap /usr/local/var/db/openldap-data chown -R ldap:ldap /usr/local/etc/openldap/ chmod -R 0700 /usr/local/var/db/openldap-data chmod 0400 /usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.conf Also we need to copy the samba schema to the final directory. # cp /usr/local/share/examples/samba/LDAP/samba.schema /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/ Then we want to make sure slapd logs to syslog. Add the lines to the file /etc/syslog.conf # vi /etc/syslog.conf !slapd *.* /var/log/slapd.log Now we create the log file and restart the syslog deamon # # touch /var/log/slapd.log /etc/rc.d/syslogd restart nss_ldap.conf Make sure the file /usr/local/etc/nss_ldap.conf looks like the following # vi /usr/local/etc/nss_ldap.conf base dc=smbdomain,dc=local bind_policy soft bind_timelimit 10 host localhost idle_timelimit 3600 ldap_version 3 nss_base_group ou=Groups,dc=smbdomain,dc=local?one nss_base_passwd ou=People,dc=smbdomain,dc=local?one nss_base_passwd ou=Computers,dc=smbdomain,dc=local?one nss_base_shadow ou=People,dc=smbdomain,dc=local?one nss_connect_policy persist nss_paged_results yes pagesize 1000 port 389 scope one timelimit 30 Now we link the file /usr/local/etc/nss_ldap.conf to /usr/local/etc/openldap/ldap.conf # # # rm -/usr/local/etc/openldap/ldap.conf ln -s /usr/local/etc/nss_ldap.conf /usr/local/etc/openldap/ldap.conf ln -s /usr/local/etc/nss_ldap.conf /usr/local/etc/ldap.conf To make sure the slapd deamon (the openldap server) starts at a reboot we need to edit the /etc/rc.conf file. # # # # echo "#enable slapd" >>/etc/rc.conf echo slapd_enable=\"YES\" >>/etc/rc.conf echo slapd_flags='-h \"ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fopenldap%2fldapi/ ldap://0.0.0.0/ ldap://127.0.0.1/\"' >>/etc/rc.conf echo slapd_sockets=\"/var/run/openldap/ldapi\" >>/etc/rc.conf And we try to start it! # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/slapd start Starting slapd. # ps ax | grep slap 11383 ?? Ss 0:00,01 /usr/local/libexec/slapd -h ldapi://%2fvar 11385 p2 S+ 0:00,00 grep slap /etc/nsswitch.conf Edit the /etc/nsswitch file and make sure to edit the group: and passwd: line, so change compat to files ldap. The file looks like this after editing group: files ldap group_compat: nis hosts: files dns networks: files passwd: files ldap passwd_compat: nis shells: files services: compat services_compat: nis protocols: files rpc: files Samba All my data (shares) and other samba related files like username are in /usr/local/samba. So first we create that dir # mkdir /usr/local/samba We also create a usermap file named usermap # vi /usr/local/samba/usermap root = administrator To create the following /usr/local/etc/smb.conf file, you must remove or empty the original one. Make sure you replace fxp0 for your own network interface, or comment out the line interfaces = and bind interfaces only = # rm /usr/local/etc/smb.conf # vi /usr/local/etc/smb.conf # Global parameters [global] workgroup = SMBDOMAIN server string = Samba Server netbios name = serv01 hosts allow = 192.168.50. 127. 10.0.1. interfaces = fxp0, lo bind interfaces only = Yes # passwd backend encrypt passwords = yes passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://serv01.smbdomain.local/ enable privileges = yes pam password change= Yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*UNIX*password* %nn *ReType*new*UNIX*password* %nn * passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully* unix password sync = Yes # Log options log level = 1 log file = /var/log/samba/%m max log size = 50 syslog = 0 # Name resolution name resolve order = wins bcast host # misc timeserver = Yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 use sendfile = yes veto files = /*.eml/*.nws/*.{*}/ veto oplock files = /*.doc/*.xls/*.mdb/ deadtime = 120 # Dos-Attribute map hidden = No map system = No map archive = No map read only = No store dos attributes = Yes # printers - configured to use CUPS and automatically load them load printers = Yes printcap name = CUPS printing = cups cups options = Raw show add printer wizard = No # scripts invoked by samba add user script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd -m %u delete user script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-userdel %u add group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupadd -p %g delete group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupdel %g add user to group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupmod -m %u %g delete user from group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupmod -x %u %g set primary group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-usermod -g %g %u > add machine script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w %m # LDAP-iConfiguration ldap delete dn = Yes ldap ssl = off ldap passwd sync = Yes ldap suffix = dc=smbdomain,dc=local ldap machine suffix = ou=Computers ldap user suffix = ou=People ldap group suffix = ou=Groups ldap idmap suffix = ou=Idmap ldap admin dn = cn=Manager,dc=smbdomain,dc=local idmap backend = ldap:ldap://serv01.smbdomain.local idmap uid = 10000-20000 idmap gid = 10000-20000 # logon options logon script = logon.bat logon path = \%Lprofiles%u logon path = logon home = \%L%U logon drive = H: # setting up as domain controller username map = /usr/local/samba/usermap preferred master = Yes wins support = Yes domain logons = Yes domain master = Yes local master = Yes os level = 64 map acl inherit = Yes unix charset = UTF8 #============================ Share Definitions ============================== [netlogon] comment = Network Logon Service path = /usr/local/etc/samba/netlogon guest ok = yes locking = no [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = No browseable = No [Profiles] comment = Network Profiles Service path = /usr/local/etc/samba/profiles read only = No profile acls = yes hide files = /desktop.ini/ntuser.ini/NTUSER.*/ profile acls = Yes [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = No guest ok = Yes printable = Yes use client driver = Yes default devmode = Yes [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /usr/local/samba/printer-drivers browseable = yes guest ok = no read only = yes write list = root [data] comment = Data Directory path = /home/data write list = @smbdomain read only = No create mask = 0777 directory mask = 0777 Create the following directories: netlogon, profiles, printer-drivers and the share data, and give them proper permissions. # # # # # mkdir /usr/local/samba/netlogon mkdir /usr/local/samba/profiles mkdir /usr/local/samba/printer-drivers mkdir /usr/local/samba/data chmod 777 /usr/local/samba/profiles Check the smb.conf file by doing a testparm # testparm /usr/local/etc/smb.conf You should see the following without errors Load smb config files from /usr/local/etc/smb.conf Processing section "[netlogon]" Processing section "[homes]" Processing section "[Profiles]" Processing section "[printers]" Processing section "[print$]" Processing section "[data]" Loaded services file OK. Server role: ROLE_DOMAIN_PDC Press enter to see a dump of your service definitions We need to store the password from the ldap server in the secret.tdb file of samba. First we stop the openldap server(also for later when we import the data) # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/slapd stop Stopping slapd. Waiting for PIDS: 49851. # # smbpasswd w very-secure-password Setting stored password for "cn=Manager,dc=smbdomain,dc=local" in secrets.tdb Make sure samba can start and will restart after a reboot # # # # # echo "#enable Samba" >>/etc/rc.conf echo nmbd_enable="YES" >>/etc/rc.conf echo smbd_enable="YES" >>/etc/rc.conf echo winbindd_enable="YES" >>/etc/rc.conf echo cupsd_enable="YES" >>/etc/rc.conf Now we start samba # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/samba start Removing stale Samba tdb files: ....... done Starting nmbd.

Ss 0:00.01 /usr/local/sbin/smbd -D -s /usr/local/etc/smb.conf To make sure samba starts after the ldap server starts we need to edit the startup scrpit of samba.
