[Samba] [samba] strange: 20 characters max in samAccountName

Hi all,

Sernet Samba 4.2.2 as Active Directory on Debian 7.8. No other DC.

I can't log in with on Windows systems (Windows 7) when samAccountName are
longer than 20 characters. This seems to be a LAN MAN or NT4 limitation
which should not happen on AD domain.
Any idea what could leads my to that limitation?

I can log in using administrator account or any other having a short
(enough) samAccountName.
I tried to add @ad.domain.tld to samAccountName during log in process
without any success.

smb.conf is:
-------------------------------------------------------------
# Global parameters
[global]
        workgroup = AD.DOMAIN
        realm = ad.domain.tld
        netbios name = DC01
        server role = active directory domain controller

        dns forwarder = 10.0.0.240
        # DC version of rfc2307
        idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes

[netlogon]
        path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol/ad.domain.tld/scripts
        read only = No

[sysvol]
        path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol
        read only = No

-------------------------------------------------------------

here are some logs:

These two lines seem to show authentication is working well as Kerberos
ticket seems to be granted:

I don't understand why this limitation comes up...

You cannot have a sAMAccountName that is longer than 20 characters, this 
is a Microsoft AD restriction, see here:

[Samba] [samba] strange: 20 characters max in samAccountName

Hello Mathias,

as Rowland already said, it's an AD limitation.

Even if the @ character is allowed, your sAMAccountName attributes
should't contain it! You will run into problems some day with it. It's
the same with spaces, umlauts, etc.

If you see someone login with user at samdom.example.com, then this usually
isn't the sAMAccountName attribute. It's the value from the
userPrincipalName attribute.

If the account doesn't have a userPrincipalName attribute set, then you
can only use the value from sAMAccountName for login.

[Samba] [samba] strange: 20 characters max in samAccountName

Thank you both precisions : )

My users have no "@" in their names (samAccountName nor
userPrincipalName
nor anything) except in mail attribute).
>From https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms679635%28v=vs.85%29.aspxwhich I read before initial post I understand AD can have this limitation
of 20 chars if and only if you decide to support (so) old clients (that we
should stop thinking about them).
In first table the limit of 20 chars is there.
In others tables this limit seems to me pushed up to 256 characters
(range-upper line).

Now I can read this table in the wrong way (that won't be the first time
:), but I thought this limit was removed with AD without the option to
support old clients...
