Hi,
As I mentioned few days ago here
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=129739
I have managed to come up with a edited version of the samba+ldap
tutorial. That is working at the moment.
I have re-written the doc according to the newer version of Fedora (that
is Fedora 7) and have to edit alot of things. Other missing areas in the
earlier tutorial are also filled in. Most importantly the parts on how
to configure a Windows client and using yum to install and update the
required software. Also this guide covers on howto get a master DNS
server up and running because DNS must be working for this thing to
work.
So far I have managed to configure Windows 2000 Professional client (and
it's working great) as I don't have Windows XP machine at the moment but
will soon be doing that.
I want to have cvs access so that I can start uploading the source xml.
If someone like to see the edited version I have it at the moment in
openoffice.org format at
http://freeshells.ch/~source/smbldap-f7-howto.odt
Will soon be going to port it into Docbook and according to the
fedoraproject Docs Writing guidelines.
Thanks

_very_ interesting for the ones (like me) wich have to live with windows
machines, also may be interesting to see docs on connecting fedora
workstations to windows active directory. also the dns part is _very_
interesting too.
thank you very much. is there a link to the guide? i have not seen it on
bugzilla.

Glad you are interested; please keep your eyes open here for later
versions so you can test the doc (peer edit).

Sorry, I got ill and couldn't see this response. I am trying to
recover.
Thanks for commenting out on those points. I think the DNS part really
needs something more general applicable to a broad set of users.
I really appreciate the comments and I will soon write the edited
version. Meanwhile I am trying to work on Docbook XML part as I am new
to it.
Will soon be coming out with some great stuff.
Thanks.

Hi Deependra,
This tutorial has a lot of good information in it, so great work there.
It sounds like you're already aware of the need for it to be more
consistent with our writing guidelines, such as eliminating the first
person use of "I" throughout. I see your account has a completed CLA,
so if you haven't already, just request "cvsdocs" membership and we can
get you CVS access. I'll put you on the access list for the appropriate
module so you can continue work there as desired.
You can port your edits to the existing XML, once you've got some
rudimentary DocBook from the OpenOffice.org converter -- or however you
intend to convert to XML -- but please do not import the ODT file
itself. If you need any help with the DocBook or CVS, feel free to ask
questions here or at IRC #fedora-docs anytime.
You might find the Documentation Guide useful. There is a relatively
fresh version available now:
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/documentation-guide/
If you find omissions or problems, please Bugzilla them since I am
actively working on that Guide lately. The style guidelines are
available on the Wiki for your reference too. Again, we welcome any
questions!

Cool. I remember helping with this when David first did it. I'll check
over the latest version if that's ok with everyone.
