[SOLVED] Web Services Active Directory

[pirona]

Hello,

do you know if there are plans for Samba 4 to integrate Active Directory Web Services (ADWS), which would allow for a considerable number of additional PowerShell capabilities?

It's a big undertaking, so I imagine not, but just in case...?

I haven't found anything about it elsewhere on the web, but perhaps I haven't searched properly.

Your preference is a matter of resources and priorities.

Otherwise, why not Python, which will give you the same results (unless you're using a third-party application that relies exclusively on the Windows AD HTTP APIs)?

Regards,

Vincent

As a young padawan fresh out of school, I don't (yet) know Python.
So, I'd be interested in any hints that might point me in the right direction.

Hello,

Due to a misunderstanding, we found this in the Samba documentation: https://dev.tranquil.it/samba/fr/samba_ ... samdb.html

This part of the documentation is still a work in progress, but it's already a good starting point if you want to use Python with Samba.

Regards,

Alexandre

Thank you, that's exactly what I need!

Best wishes to the team, by the way.
