samba - Feb 2015 - Samba 4 GPO - Account Policy

Hello,

 

I installed samba4 on an debian server with dc provisioning.

 

If I create an default policy that is linked to the domain and set the
Account Lockout Policy to e.g. 5 thresholds, it does not work.

 

My question: I this Policy supported by samba and if it is supported how can
I apply these.

 

 

I also tried on other systems like openSUSE 13.2 and Ubuntu 14.04.

And I also tried an virtual, physical machines.

My Version of Samba is 4.1.16 from the samba download page.

 

It would be great, if someone can help me.

 

 

Best wishes

 

Matthias

Here's the answer to your FAQ:

4.2 will bring support for "bad password lockout" settings via
samba-tool. Has to be set per DC and is valid domain wide, of course.
