[Samba] Fwd: Re: Samba_internal dns Ubuntu 14.04.1LTS
Sent the following only to Rowland by mistake. Forgive me O' fearless leader of mailing list. My bad. --- ------------------------- Bob Wooden of Donelson Trophy 615.885.2846 (main) www.donelsontrophy.com [1] "Everyone deserves an award!!" -------- Original Message -------- SUBJECT: Re: [Samba] Samba_internal dns Ubuntu 14.04.1LTS DATE: 2014-11-07 09:32 FROM: Donelson Trophy <bob at donelsontrophy.net> TO: Rowland Penny <rowlandpenny at googlemail.com> REPLY-TO: awards at donelsontrophy.net Originally I tried CentOS 6.5 Samba4 ADDC and all went well. But, all my other machines are Ubuntu. Have tried a few Debian test installs. As Debian is (was) the parent for Ubuntu, I like it better than CentOS as an alternate OS. And I know more about how to do this and that in Ubuntu than CentOS. Not that I am saying anything is wrong with CentOS. I am just not use to configuring CentOS. (Not an opinion, just a personal fact.) Rowland, based on your suggestion this weekend a Debian Samba4 install gets built. L.P.H. van Belle, based on your suggestion Debian 7.7. I hope there are some good howtos around. Guess I'll go look, now. (Rowland . . v7.5 . . v7.7 . . . it's all good!!) Thanks both of you. (Too many confusing tutorials around for the Ubuntu setups!) --- ------------------------- Bob Wooden of Donelson Trophy 615.885.2846 (main) www.donelsontrophy.com [1] "Everyone deserves an award!!"

Install debian 7.7 and samba from sernet :-P imo sernet samba is the best on debian. i had problems with samba 4.1.11 from backports when joining an extra DC. i missed some dns entries, should be fixed in the next 4.1.12 or 13 on backports. 4.1.13 is in Debian Jessie, so should not take long anymore..Well if you are going to be like that about it, travel back in time about 2 months, install debian 7.5, install samba 4.1.9 from backports and provision, return to now and update to 4.1.11, all you have to do now, is wait until 4.1.13 gets into backports :-D :-D Rowland PS, I cannot recommend using Ubuntu 14.04.> .... > >> # Need to keep 127.0.1.1 entry or DNS fails 127.0.1.1 mysrvr03.mycomapny.biz wdnsrvr03 192.168.16.208 mysrvr03.mycompany.biz wdnsrvr03 > This all has to do with an incorrect setup of ubuntu. * not your fault but ubuntu's. The ubuntu installer is just not correct, and i can get the installer to make it fail on every boot, even when the install is 100% correct. You want to try, get a ubuntu server, choose expert install, expert Command line install. choose minimal install, only ssh-server. nothing else. Install your server, at dhcp ip, press cancel, and now you can enter a static ip. resume the install.. and at last, reboot, and you end up like. 1) slow on network configuring, always waiting, and when fully started, no ssh logins are possible. google for it, lots of people experiance this. 2) you have lost your usb keyboard. same here.. google for it.

Once you have got Wheezy up and running, you have a choice, you can use the Sernet packages or use samba from backports. If you use the Sernet packages, you will have to register to get these, don't worry, it won't cost you anything, but watch out, you may find that the promised 4.2rc2 packages are available, I cannot recommended using these for other than testing purposes (well testing that THEY work). Unless the samba version in backports has been upgraded to 4.1.13, I cannot recommend using them either, there is a problem with 4.1.11. Any problems, just ask. Rowland
