Ubuntu 8.10 and AD users

[Bob Elzer]

I'm not sure, because I haven't tried likewise, but looking at their web
page I don't see anything about letting AD users control your linux machine.

It talks about letting you access AD in every way, which I think it has done
that.

But I don't think it lets AD access your linux.

I might suggest you post this question to the likewise forum.

If I'm way off base, Just ignore me.

Subject: Ubuntu 8.10 and AD users

I am part of an It team at work, and when i lost the vista install on my
machine i decided to see how well i could run Linux as my desktop in that
environment, with a great thumbs up from my boss which is even better, as he
wants to see how it works out.

I can join the domain now and log in with AD users but i cannot give them
any permissions other than that of a regular user, not can i add them to a
my sudoers list which is odd.

I am using a new method for AD membership (being likewise-open) than a
normal samba configuration which i think is part of my oddity.

Has anyone here used likewise-open at all? or any suggestions on how to
bring in the AD user list so that i can better integrate with my network?

Thanks for your time!
