[webmin-devel] RE: (patch included) LDAP User module and Samba3

[Isaac F. <is...@co...>]

Here's the patch for the LDAP Users/Groups module that better supports 
Samba3

Changes:
-Added other_class field in module config that allows you to specify 
other objectClasses to add to the newly created user (not necessary for 
samba3, but I needed it ;)  )
-Changed the samba attributes code to add samba3 attributes when 
samba_class = sambaSamAccount
	Didn't just use the schema check since it's possible to have both the 
samba and samba3 schema's loaded while transitioning to the new schema. 
  If the samba_class is sambaAccount everything works as before.
-Added "Domain SID for Samba3" property, since this is needed to 
calculate the sambaSID and sambaPrimaryGroupSID for users

To use with samba3:
in the module config, change the "LDAP object class for Samba users" to 
sambaSamAccount

Add the following to the LDAP properties for new Samba users:
At least:
sambaSID
sambaAcctFlags
sambaNTPassword
sambaLMPassword
sambaPrimaryGroupSID

You can add the other samba3 attributes, and you will need to also add 
them to the "Extra LDAP properties to allow editing" area

How does this look?  It's a patch against the 1.119 dev release

Notes:
I really love webmin and would love to contribute more (to this module 
in particular.)  Here's what I want to do:
-Enhance help area, it's hard to get started with this module unless 
you really know what you're doing.
-make groups use posixGroups and groupOfNames so it can be used to 
manage LDAP groups that can be used by other apps or the security 
settings in the LDAP server.
