Even if LDAP is used as backend db for smb account info

It depends on your task. <br />
If you want your Linux box behalf like Windows 2000 AD - it's impossible.<br />
If you want retrieve user account info from AD to LDAP - yes, you can.<br />

Hi all,<br />
<br />
I have a Windows 2000 server running an AD at a client. I will be putting in a SuSE Ent box at the client within the next few weeks.<br />
<br />
One of the things I want to do if possible is to setup user account &nbsp;/ domain synchronisation between the windows Server and the Linux Server. Almost like a PDC – BDC scenario<br />
<br />
Any views or comments on how to pull this off if possible will be great<br />
<br />
Regards<br />

Synchronising Windows Domain with Linux BDC

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.

Linux

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).
