Hi, I am trying to join a samba server to my AD directory but if fails: [root@localhost postfix]# net ads join -U apacci@ACME apacci@ACNEU's password: [2008/09/04 15:12:45, 0] libads/kerberos.c:ads_kinit_password(228) kerberos_kinit_password apacci@ACME failed: Cannot resolve network address for KDC in requested realm Failed to join domain: Undetermined error [root@localhost postfix]# net ads join -U apacci@EU.ACME.COM apacci@EU.ACME.COM's password: Using short domain name -- ACME Failed to set servicePrincipalNames. Please ensure that the DNS domain of this server matches the AD domain, Or rejoin with using Domain Admin credentials. Deleted account for 'AMSDEV-DV10' in realm 'EU.ACME.COM' Failed to join domain: Type or value exists There is no computer account named amsdev-dv10 in my directory. kinit doesn't return anything [root@localhost postfix]# kinit apacci Password for apacci@EU.ACME.COM: My resolv.conf is ok.I can ping and resolve hosts in my AD. My /etc/host file is basic: ::1 localhost.localdomain localhost amsdev-dv10 The username is domain admin. My krb5.conf is as follow: [libdefaults] default_realm = EU.ACME.COM dns_lookup_realm = false dns_lookup_kdc = false ticket_lifetime = 24h forwardable = yes [realms] EU.ACME.COM = { kdc = amsterdam-dc02.eu.acme.com kdc = amsterdam-dc01.eu.acme.com admin_server = amsterdam-dc02.eu.acme.com master_kdc = amsterdam-dc02.eu.acme.com default_domain = eu.acme.com } [domain_realm] eu.acme.com = EU.ACME.COM .eu.acme.com = EU.ACME.COM .acme.com = EU.ACME.COM acme.com = EU.ACME.COM [kdc] profile = /etc/kdc.conf smb.conf [global] workgroup = ACME password server = 10.130.12.100 realm = EU.ACME.COM security = ADS idmap uid = 16777216-33554431 idmap gid = 16777216-33554431 winbind separator = + template shell = /bin/false winbind use default domain = true winbind offline logon = false server string = Samba Server Version %v passdb backend = tdbsam preferred master = No wins server = 10.130.10.100 ldap ssl = no winbind enum users = Yes winbind enum groups = Yes [homes] comment = Home Directories read only = No browseable = No
Apparently something is wrong with my hosts file. I have changed it and now get a much better result: [root@amsdev-dv10 ~]# net ads join -U apacci@EU.ACME.COM apacci@EU.ACME.COM's password: Using short domain name -- ACME DNS update failed! Joined 'AMSDEV-DV10' to realm 'EU.ACME.COM' What the dns update failed means? 2008/9/4 Thomas Vito <shoktai@gmail.com>> Hi, > > I am trying to join a samba server to my AD directory but if fails: > > [root@localhost postfix]# net ads join -U apacci@ACME > apacci@ACNEU's password: > [2008/09/04 15:12:45, 0] libads/kerberos.c:ads_kinit_password(228) > kerberos_kinit_password apacci@ACME failed: Cannot resolve network > address for KDC in requested realm > Failed to join domain: Undetermined error > > [root@localhost postfix]# net ads join -U apacci@EU.ACME.COM > apacci@EU.ACME.COM's password: > Using short domain name -- ACME > Failed to set servicePrincipalNames.
