smbldap-installer documentation

Welcome to the smbldap-installer wiki!

Here is where you'll find the documentation you've been looking for to help you set up and configure your Samba/LDAP machine. Before you start you'll need a Linux box preferably running Ubuntu, Fedora Core 4 or 5, or K12LTSP (as of this writing 07-12-06...version 5 rc1 is the latest...the new smbldap-installer will be released this week we hope). Once you have that set up you'll need the smbldap-installer...you can get the latest version here
