Learning Plan 2
Samba

Network Administration 3 (150-123)

 

Thomas Olivotti

Learning objectives:

1. Establish file services using Samba on your Linux server.

2. Integrate Samba with Kerboros (Windows Server 2003 Authentication) for Samba authentication purposes.

3. Create a file share on your Windows Platform and make it available through distributed file services (DFS).

4. Make your Samba file shares available through DFS.

5. Manage security through both NTFS and ACLs'.

6. Establish group policies to automatically map your network shares at login.

My Samba Configuration (smb.conf)

The first thing I did was set up a simple file share called public. Note my screen shots are after I integrated samba with kerboros

Integrating Kerboros

This was where I modified my krb5.conf file to integrate samba with kerboros.

DFS (Distributed File System)

Now this is a really neat feature of Windows Server 2003. I created a file share on the windows server called share. I then combined the share on Linux with the share on Windows in a DFS.

Group Policy Mapping

Now to give all my users access to the shares I used Group Policy in Active Directory. I created a login script to automaticaly map to the DFS Share on my Windows Server. The next thing I did was to create a log off script that would unmap the drive when users log off.

ACL's

In this part I added 3 hard drives and configured them in RAID 5. I then mounted the Raid Array with the ACL parameter. After setting permissions with the facl command and umask I made a private folder that normal users could not access. The private folder resides inside of a Topsecret share that users can access if they have proper permissions.
