SAMBA IPA Authentication

Posted on

I am curious if it is possible to authenticate and access a SAMBA share from a Windows client (located on Active Directory domain) using separate IDM credentials? I believe there was some documentation on this, but the page is no longer accessible:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/linux_domain_identity_authentication_and_policy_guide/setting-up-samba-to-authenticate-users-to-idm

I found some information regarding how to do this or something similar via freeIPA, but I am not sure if those same instructions would apply to IDM.

Thanks,
