[Samba] How do you join a Linux mailserver to a Samba domain?
SOGo/Openchange is not willing i f it is not holding the fsmo roles. And by the way in an multiple DC replicating environment you can kill your domain on the fly even with a real "Exchange-Server" if you are not carefull enough. So the only way to make OPenchange live in your domain ist o join it as dc. And status of development as far as I know this is hard to do. Or you manage to provision as new domain and write a script per scp to add users to both domains.

The e-mail problems appears to be a permissions and summary file issue. I gave the users Administrative permissions, and everything worked perfectly. Then I compacted the folders and rebuilt the summary files, took away Administrator permissions, and everything STILL works perfectly. When I posted the question, I wondered if there was some step in joining the mailserver I'd missed. I'm told when Microsoft Exchange is installed, it adds entries to Active Directory, and I wondered about alternative mailservers. I see no place in the ADUC MMC to identify the SOGo/Dovecot mailserver. The same server functions as the Samba AD DC, and alternatively, I wondered if I should use a Windows Server as a Domain Controller pointing back to Samba AD DC Would that identify my mailserver? I also don't understand why the ADUC MMC failed to created a "new" user.

[Samba] How do you join a Linux mailserver to a Samba domain?
interesting, thx . . . SOGO/Openchange/Dovecot/Postfix are on the same box as my Samba AD DC Inverse provides provisioning instructions for using Samba AD DC as the source for SOGo/Openchange, and those have been working properly BEFORE we joined the Windows 2008 R2 Servers to the domain. One Windows Server acts as a Remote Desktop Server (Terminal Services) and the other as SQL Server. I wondered if joining the SQL Server as a Domain Controller would help. However, I see that I need to look into the FSMO rules and their relationship to SOGo/Openchange (and stay away from a second DC) How can I join the mailserver portion of my Ubuntu Server? How can I identify it in the ADUC schema? On 04/24/2015 08:03 AM, Daniel M?ller wrote:> SOGo/Openchange is not willing i f it is not holding the fsmo roles.

[Samba] How do you join a Linux mailserver to a Samba domain?
It looks like I need the Schema Master and RID Master roles installed on my Samba AD DC How do I get those roles installed and/or how do I expand the Samba AD schema?

I'll search the WikiIf you only have one AD DC, then they are already on your DC and there is no other place the FSMO roles could be. Installed is not the term I would use, they are not like schema updates. They are just services which are required in an AD network, and any AD DC can (and must be able to) perform any of them. Just that only one of them can hold that particular role at any given tome, so one is considered a master. They are explained in more detail here (it also tells you how to see which DC holds each role): https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Flexible_Single-Master_Operations_(FSMO)_roles#The_five_FSMO_roles There is a wiki page on extensions, though there's not much detail there: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_AD_Schema_Extenstions For the most part, things are no different than schema extensions on a Windows DC. Except you need to use different tools to apply them if you want to do it by CLI on the server. (You should be able to use the Windows MMC tools against a Samba server just like you would against a Windows DC).
