Hi All,

I am working as a system administrator in a gaming company around with 80 systems and 3 Linux systems (RHEL 5.0)..

The 80 systems are Windows Xp and server is Windows 2003 R2...These 80 systems are clients under this 2003 server..

But the three Linux systems are in workgroup..How can i add these three systems to Windows network..

As per my knowledge it is possible with WINBIND..

But tell me what are changes needed in Linux and as well as windows server 2003...

Please help me..

Thanks in Advance..

Hi bhanuk,

Windows 2003 R2 server is designed to integrate seamlessly into heterogeneous environments with support for all major network operating system protocols including NFS (Unix/Linux), Netware (Novell), AppleTalk, and HTTP.

So, it would appear that NFS is a part of the solution you are seeking, and possibly Samba.

Download the PDF document Linux/Windows Security Interop: Apache with mod_auth_kerb and Windows ... for an example of what Linux packages may be involved and guidance that may help you implement your (due to its similarity) solution.

Also, look at Linux, Active Directory, and Windows Server 2003 R2 Revisited.
