Hallo,
I've setup a BDC in the same subnet like my PDC. I observed that some
User take the BDC to logon.
The Domain-Join of some PCs will also done at the BDC.
Is this behavior normal and wanted? If done so, I have to rsync the
profiles or only netlogon?
Best regards
Matthias
PDC:
[global]
netbios name = PDC
workgroup = MyDOMAIN
server string = DC (PDC) (%v)
security = user
domain master = yes
time server = yes
domain logons = yes
encrypt passwords = yes
wins support = yes
local master = yes
prefered master = yes
os level = 64
enable privileges = yes
BDC:
[global]
netbios name = BDC
workgroup = MyDOMAIN
server string = DC Backup (%v)
security = user
domain master = no
time server = yes
domain logons = yes
wins support = no
wins server = PDC
encrypt passwords = yes
local master = yes
os level = 62

If done so, I have to rsync theIt's the client that chooses which xDC it will use any given time. So yes, it can be either the BDCs or the PDC.> profiles or only netlogon?[netlogon] is a must to keep in sync.
> [netlogon] is a must to keep in sync.You might also define where the profiles are to come from more specifically, rather than \\%L\%U maybe you want to say \\staticservername\%U or define each user as living on a particular server in their account details, assuming you use tdb or ldap.
Iwas told by Windows guru, that it can be done by 1) specifying profiles at DFS 2) making DFS available as mirror> >> [netlogon] is a must to keep in sync. > > You might also define where the profiles are to come from more specifically, > rather than \\%L\%U maybe you want to say \\staticservername\%U or define > each user as living on a particular server in their account details, > assuming you use tdb or ldap. > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the > instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba >
