I have written Samba PDC+OpenLDAP tutorial on openSUSE
on previous article but the tutorial are based on manual configuration
and need too many steps to make it usable. Now, I want to share how to
make Samba PDC+OpenLDAP on openSUSE or SLES with automatic configuration
using the YAST way . The tutorial should be easy to understand and and need a few step to make it ready for testing.
INSTALLING OPENSUSE
Install openSUSE 11.2 with or without GUI, choose which one suitable for your purpose. I’m using a GUI example because this tutorial intended for student . a Minimal server selection (text mode) maybe a better option for production server. Please refer to openSUSE 11.2 installation guide if you need an assistance regarding openSUSE installation.
Lucky for Indonesian , I’ve written a PDF tutorial with clear explanation regarding openSUSE installation for this purpose : Tutorial Instalasi openSUSE 11.2 Versi Server Berbasis GUI
INSTALLING LDAP SERVER
Follow these wizard to install and configure LDAP server :
