3 auth_smb - nnrpd Samba authenticator
7 B<auth_smb> B<server> [B<backup_server>] B<domain>
11 This program does authentication for B<nnrpd> against an SMB server. It
12 passes the received username and password to B<server> for validation in
13 the specified SMB B<domain>. A backup server may optionally be
14 supplied; if it is missing, only B<server> is used.
16 If authentication is successful, the original username is returned as
17 the authentication identity. Brief errors, including incorrect password
18 and failure contacting the server, are logged.
22 The following readers.conf(5) fragment grants access to users who can
23 authenticate against an SMB server:
26 auth: "auth_smb pdc.example.com bdc.example.com USERS"
27 default-domain: "users.example.com"
31 users: "*@users.example.com"
35 Access is granted to the example.* groups after successful
40 We should link against an external SMB library rather than maintain one
41 within the INN source tree.
