I use Likewise Enterprise to provide AD integration
While Samba 3.5 and Likewise 6 fixed the problems authenticating against Win2k8r2, Likewise removed support for Samba/Winbind in their 6.x series product (they included full support for Samba/Winbind in their 5.x series product)--they now use their own libraries to provide "winbind" functionality. The result of this is that the Samba-included ntlm_auth no longer works (and Likewise doesn't provide a comparable replacement)--since my FreeRADIUS install was using ntlm_auth for AD authentication and authorization, it is no longer working.
So I'm looking at alternate ways of authenticating against Win2k8r2. I was hoping to get some input from the list regarding this.
Why not bypass Likewise? If another windows server is able to join the domain directly, then a Linux machine with samba can surely join the same domain without needing Likewise or some other third-party integration tool. -- Fajar
