[Samba] Samba and LDAP: Trouble adding Win XP machines to the domain

I have had the same problem with a similar setup for at least 3 years.
My solution is to create the account for the windows workstation
either via the smbldap-useradd and the linux useradd commands or a gui
wizard that does this for me. I currently use ldap-account-manager
http://lam.sourceforge.net/ for as well as user management. And then
after the account is created the windows add to domain boxes work.

[Samba] Samba and LDAP: Trouble adding Win XP machines to the domain

Hi all,

I am doing some research on Samba+OpenLDAP (+DHCP+DNS) with the intention of
getting rid of the Micro$oft licenses necessary to maintain the Server
products from such company. One of the aims I have is to demonstrate other
people in my company that an open source alternative can work as well as (or
even better than) a propietary solution.

At the moment, I am getting desperated trying to find out what is going
wrong when I try to add a Win XP machine to the domain I have recently
created.

I have read about 6-7 tutorials to date and changed the *.conf files a
hundred times and still the Win XP machine refuses to join the domain. I
have already searched the samba forums and checked the bugs present in the
version I am using and I have found nothing related to my problem.

The technical details are the following:

When I attempt to join the domain via the GUI, Win tells me "username could
not be found" and so does when I try the same thing via CLI (the domain is
called "eremu" and the user, password and machinename are ok):

?Have you ever experienced such error? I have read about some people that
have dealt with such error, but they have posted no solution at all.

FYI, I can access samba shares using the same user (root) but the machine
cannot join the domain. I have fixed all the machine policies and registry
stuff (requiresignorseal and so on...) and still nothing.

Also, the command:
ldapsearch -x -h localhost -D 'cn=root,dc=eremu,dc=org' -W
'(ou=Users)'
works like a charm.

Should you need further details, please just let me know.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a lot.

P.S.: ?Can it have anything to do with other stuff such as the DNS server?

[Samba] Samba and LDAP: Trouble adding Win XP machines to the domain

Great!!!

I have created a couple of machine accounts through the LAM utility and I
have eventually been able to join the domain.

Thank you very much for your help.

If your users are Windows users you should add an '-a' here, and add the
users
with the '-a' flag. Like this:

	add user script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -m -a "%u"
>         delete user script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-userdel -r "%u"
>         add group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupadd "%g"
You should add '-a -p' here:

         add group script = /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupadd -m -a "%g"
> P.S.: ?Can it have anything to do with other stuff such as the DNS server?
Perhaps yes... I have a Samba server with OpenLDAP acting as a PDC and we use 
dnsmasq as our DNS server. It's small, fast and deals very well with Samba 
and Windows clients. We use it also as DHCP server so all the machines have 
the correct IP, DNS server, WINS Server and so on.

One question... the user "mikelvm" is a regular UNIX user or one added
with
the smbldap-useradd tool?

[Samba] Samba and LDAP: Trouble adding Win XP machines to the domain

Just to make it clear that its not normal a system really need to have 
accounts created that way. I dont think is a good idea to call a 
workaround used on a system that someone didnt got it working properly 
(who knows why) as a solution, samba works very fine creating 
workstation accounts automatically when joining the clients and can even 
use accounts other than root trough privileges to join the client.

The list has several posts about that and the samba documentation shows 
how to do that automatically and manually.

But anyway if the user that asked simply said that its fine for him that 
way, and dropped the thread ...

Regards.

[Samba] Samba and LDAP: Trouble adding Win XP machines to the domain

Hi Edmundo,

I do agree with you. The first thing I wanted was to be able to add a
machine to the domain and once I have been able to do so, I have been
debugging to get to know why LAM was succeeding and the console scripts not. 
Yesterday, I found out that when the windows machine is added through the
console script, the uidNumber assigned is superior to 1000 (1001, 1002 and
so on...) but when added through the LAM it requested a number superior to
50000. I do not exactly know why, but if I create the machiness via the
console script (smbldap-useradd -w) the "username not found message
appears"
and the machine is assigned a number superior to 1000. If I then change such
uidNumber to 5000x, the machine can then join the domain.

This morning I wanted to review the smbldap-useradd perl script to see if
there is any place (config file or so) where I can indicate the base number
I want for the machines.

?Do I need to set that "base" uidNumber somewhere? ?Why must it be set
to
above than 50000?
?Did you ever experience anything similar?

Thanks for your help.

[Samba] Samba and LDAP: Trouble adding Win XP machines to the domain

Hi all,

I finally found where the problem is. The samba attributes are not being
added when the workstation entry is created. The "sambaSamAccount"
objectclass is missing. 

Why is it not being added if it is suppossed to be a windows workstation? Is
there a bug in the "smbldap-useradd" script when invoked with the
"-w"
parameter?

You need both "-a" and "-m" passwd to smbldap-useradd for
the samba
attributes to be added, IMHO.

Hi Alex,

I don?t think those modifiers would change anything but I have tried them
anyway and the objectclass is still not being added.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Again, those scripts are used only by tools that create accounts trough 
samba, like net or usrmgr, if you dont use it those lines will not be used.

About the samba attributes, when you add a machine account the script 
"add machine" must NOT ADD SAMBA ATTRIBUTES, only posix, samba does
that
alone. Refer to the idealx documentation (if you really want that things 
work properly, reading the documentation is not an option), it was 
already discussed here and the documentation explains how to configure 
that and how it should work.

http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=33543&group_id=166108

About knowing what is happening, put a log level 2 or 3 and try to join 
a machine. Look at the logs, it should say what exit the script gave and 
what samba tried to do.

Very strange as it appears that it will only work for me if the
sambaSAMAccount is there before having windows join to the domain via
the windows XP dialogs. This is what LAM is doing that the idealx
scripts are not doing.

I did set a debug level of 4 and what I saw was a NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER (or
something alike) but no more specific details. The machine account (posix)
gets created automatically but the samba attributes are not added by samba.
>Again, those scripts are used only by tools that create accounts trough

I think you are wrong, because the "add machine script" DOES get
executed
when adding a machine to a domain.

I have read the documentation you point out and many other tutorials and
howtos but I find myself in the same situation I was some days ago. I have
even tried to install everything in three different linux distros and in one
of them I have reinstalled everything from scratch three or four times. This
is why I am trying alternate methods.

So, samba is not doing its job and it may be because I am missing something
but I still do not know what it is. Anyway, I can post the samba log if you
think it is helpful to find out the source of the error.

Thanks for the advice,

Mikel

look for nscd running, it may cache a negative response and samba never
see the created posix attributes in time to add samba stuff.

Simo.

What distro are you using?
How did you populate it?
I use Debian (its a little different), but how did you configured NSS? 
("getent passwd" shows your machine accounts?)
What user are you using to join? (if root, "smbclient -L localhost 
-Uroot" works on the shell to list the shares?)

Regards.

[Samba] Samba and LDAP: Trouble adding Win XP machines to the domain

I am using debian etch for the testing but I have had the same problem with
gentoo 2007.0. I used smbldap-populate (the admin user is "root" so no
parameters at all) and I also tried with "-u 50000 and -g 50000" so
that
user ids do not overlap.

Do I need anything else (nss) if I am not authenticating *nix clients?

getent passwd does not show the machine accounts, should they be also be
there and not only in the ldap? I thought that was not necessary.

I user the root user to join the machines and the smb query you suggest
works properly. I can even list the samba shares from the windows machines.

Thanks again

Probably you didnt configured something in all the distros.
High ids are used principally in migrations when you dont want them to 
clash with old ids (made who knows how).

Yes, do you need NSS working. I dont know where exactly it breaks when 
you dont have it. If you dont want to use posix accounts with samba 
simply give them a null shell (set the loginShell attribute with 
/bin/false) and they will not be able to be used (if you dont have 
configured PAM, I doubt that you can use them too). (If I remember right 
smbldap-tools in debian already creates accounts with a null shell)

Samba has an option called "ldap:trusted = yes", but I dont know if
NSS
is really NOT USED even if you do that in recent versions of samba. 
Maybe the developers can answer that.

Anyway the system uses NSS to resolve posix account names. And samba 
need posix accounts to map samba accounts.

In debian you install and configure the package libnss-ldap and set it 
to be used in /etc/nsswitch.conf.

You can test NSS with "getent passwd" and "getent group",
your accounts
in ldap must be visible then.

Its just recommended not necessary. I think its more error prone to that 
using ldif files (idealx scripts already does the initial population for 
you, without problems).  Of course, in a clean install.>

Would be easyer just looking the log errors.

[Samba] Samba and LDAP: Trouble adding Win XP machines to the domain

Regarding the "primary group of [root] not found" message, the
sambaSID of
"Domain Admins" is the same as the sambaPrimaryGroupSID in
"root". The user
root is inside the group "Users".

Hope it helps. Thanks.
