Hello all,
We currently use FreeNAS as our Storage-Backend for our VM-Configuration. Now it's time to serve some additional shares to the user, which are authenticated to the network via a samba-server (PDC mode).
Because we currently use a Samba NT4 configuration, I would like to know if it would be possible in the future to switch to a AD-Server configuration without problems with the following configuration:
- currently we have a separate samba nt4 domain controller and I would like to serve some FreeNAS shares to the user with the reference to this server.
- one day in the future, I would like to switch to an AD-configuration with a separate samba-server and would like to serve the former shares then over the connection with the AD-samba server.
(Hoping, you understand my intention... and description...)
Could FreeNAS reconfigured this way without problems, to connect currently with the NT4-samba-PDC and in the future to change the connection to an AD-samba-server for user authentication?
Thanks in advance,
susanne.
