Introduction

CIFS Server A.01.11 and later offer the ability to store and access CIFS Server user information in an LDAP directory store; specifically the Netscape Directory Server product shipped with HP-UX 11.0 and later. This paper will describe, step by step, the procedure to set up a simple Netscape DS server on HP-UX, the LDAP-UX client needed to access posix account information that the CIFS Server user accounts in the LDAP directory depend on, and configuring CIFS Server and the perl scripts shipped with it to access and manage your CIFS Server user account information.
