More on samba, winbind on Solaris

Here's how you can get the samba home directories to be created on the fly:

http://keutel.de/pam_mkhomedir/ Download from the first link and copy the binary to /usr/lib/security. You might want to check to see if the binary is going to work with ldd pam_mkhomedir.so.1

#sshd auth required  pam_unix_account.so.1 try_first_pass
#sshd account sufficient /usr/lib/security/pam_winbind.so debug
#sshd session sufficient /usr/lib/security/pam_winbind.so debug

Then edit /etc/pam.conf (make a backup) and edit the section

#
# Default definition for Session management
# Used when service name is not explicitly mentioned for session management
#
other session required pam_mkhomedir.so.1 skel=/etc/skel umask=0022
other session required pam_unix_session.so.1
other session sufficient /usr/lib/security/pam_winbind.so try_first_pass debug

I got a hint on this (I take no credit) from this newsgroup posting. I'm glad, 'cause I know jack about messing with PAM.

Here's a working pam.conf file for Solaris that works with winbind. Very hard information to find on the Internet. Order seriously matters in this file.
