Feel free to discuss my CIFS/AD guide, I welcome all feedback and I am happy to try and help if people are having problems with any part of it.

Some clarifications/corrections

Hi,

I'm using OpenSolaris 0811. The packages required aren't installed by default; the user will need to execute (with appropriate privileges):

# pkg install SUNWsmbskr SUNWsmbs

Like some other *nix users, when editing /etc/resolv.conf I assumed that the search line made no difference. It does - it stops you from joining the domain. Make sure the search line includes the AD domain.

Your chmod examples don't work, and I realised why after reading this page. You need to specify the full path to the chmod and ls versions (/usr/bin/chmod, /usr/bin/ls) that have been modified to work with smb permissions.

Your idmap example - there's a typo in Domain Admins - you missed out the 'n' in Admins!

Otherwise, thanks very much, your guide was the most concise one I found when looking for how to do this :)
