By now, if your still reading, you might be bored to tears with the topic but I made some serious headway today. I’ve got ACLs working so that a Windows user can set permissions and take ownership of folders and files. This was stupid easy by adding acl to fstab:

/dev/hda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro,acl 0 1

Yup, that easy. The only outstanding thing is granting sudo rights to AD groups, I can to individuals but oddly not groups. Need to figure that one out.

So by this afternoon I had a fully functioning file/web/database server that has joined a Windows domain. Last on the list, beyond sudo, is getting Sendmail to rely mail to the Exchange server so that our web apps are fully functional.  I am fairly certain I can find a work around tomorrow to get that going.
Nap time.
