-PDB MySQL plugin for samba v1.1
---
-
-Building
-=========
-Before you can build the plugin, set the variable SAMBA_SRC in Makefile to the
-path containing the samba sources. This is usually the 'source' directory in
-the samba tarball or CVS.
-
-Next, type make, and then copy pdb_mysql.so to any location you want. I
-strongly recommend installing it in $PREFIX/lib or /usr/lib/samba/
-
-Configuring
-============
-This plugin lacks some good documentation, but here is some short info:
-
-Add a the following to the 'passdb backend' variable in your smb.conf:
-
-passdb backend = [other-plugins] plugin:/location/to/pdb_mysql.so:identifier [other-plugins]
-
-The identifier can be any string you like, as long as it doesn't collide with
-the identifiers of other plugins or other instances of pdb_mysql. If you
-specify multiple pdb_mysql.so entries in 'passdb backend', you also need to
-use different identifiers!
-
-Additional options can be given thru the smb.conf file in the [global] section.
-
-identifier:mysql host - host name, defaults to 'localhost'
-identifier:mysql password
-identifier:mysql user - defaults to 'samba'
-identifier:mysql database - defaults to 'samba'
-identifier:mysql port - defaults to 3306
-identifier:table - Name of the table containing users
-
-Names of the columns in this table(I've added column types those columns
- should have first):
-identifier:logon time column - int(9)
-identifier:logoff time column - int(9)
-identifier:kickoff time column - int(9)
-identifier:pass last set time column - int(9)
-identifier:pass can change time column - int(9)
-identifier:pass must change time column - int(9)
-identifier:username column - varchar(255) - unix username
-identifier:domain column - varchar(255) - NT domain user is part of
-identifier:nt username column - varchar(255) - NT username
-identifier:fullname column - varchar(255) - Full name of user
-identifier:home dir column - varchar(255) - Unix homedir path
-identifier:dir drive column - varchar(2) - Directory drive path (eg: 'H:')
-identifier:logon script column - varchar(255) - Batch file to run on client side when logging on
-identifier:profile path column - varchar(255) - Path of profile
-identifier:acct desc column - varchar(255) - Some ASCII NT user data
-identifier:workstations column - varchar(255) - Workstations user can logon to (or NULL for all)
-identifier:unknown string column - varchar(255) - unknown string
-identifier:munged dial column - varchar(255) - ?
-identifier:uid column - int(9) - Unix user ID (uid)
-identifier:gid column - int(9) - Unix user group (gid)
-identifier:user sid column - varchar(255) - NT user SID
-identifier:group sid column - varchar(255) - NT group ID
-identifier:lanman pass column - varchar(255) - encrypted lanman password
-identifier:nt pass column - varchar(255) - encrypted nt passwd
-identifier:plaintext pass column - varchar(255) - plaintext password
-identifier:acct control column - int(9) - nt user data
-identifier:unknown 3 column - int(9) - unknown
-identifier:logon divs column - int(9) - ?
-identifier:hours len column - int(9) - ?
-identifier:unknown 5 column - int(9) - unknown
-identifier:unknown 6 column - int(9) - unknown
-
-Eventually, you can put a colon (:) after the name of each column, which
-should specify the column to update when updating the table. You can also
-specify nothing behind the colon - then the data from the field will not be
-updated.
-
-Using plaintext passwords or encrypted password
-===============================================
-I strongly discourage the use of plaintext passwords, however, you can use them:
-
-If you would like to use plaintext passwords, set 'identifier:lanman pass column' and 'identifier:nt pass column' to 'NULL' (without the quotes) and 'identifier:plaintext pass column' to the name of the column containing the plaintext passwords.
-
-If you use encrypted passwords, set the 'identifier:plaintext pass column' to 'NULL' (without the quotes). This is the default.
-
-Getting non-column data from the table
-======================================
-It is possible to have not all data in the database and making some 'constant'.
-
-For example, you can set 'identifier:fullname column' to :
- CONCAT(First_name,' ',Sur_name)
-
-Or, set 'identifier:workstations column' to :
- NULL
-
-See the MySQL documentation for more language constructs.
