[Samba] AD for Kerberos authentication, *separate* OpenLDAP for User/Group Lookup
Hi there, I'm trying again with a more generic form of the question. 1. There is an existing AD that I *do not control*. I want to authenticate with this using tickets from Windows domain login. I can join to it, but that's it. I cannot write anything in it, and the user information already there is useless. We need the existing AD/Kerberos only so users can use their broader institutional credentials (either username/password or login tickets, depending on client situation). 2. There is a totally separate OpenLDAP server that has UNIX UID, GID, and groups information. This information is necessary for group-based access to shares. All files are labeled with UIDs and GIDs from this existing database. 3. Can Samba authenticate a domain user against the AD server and lookup *ALL* user and group information based on %U, the username, from the OpenLDAP server? This was *definitely* possible in Samba < 4.8.0, and it worked completely transparently (no separate mapping database or per-user operations necessary). I have been unable to accomplish the same with Samba >= 4.8.0 after tremendous effort. Could somebody please either give some idea what a configuration to accomplish this might look like or let me know this is no longer possible so that I can try to consider other options? I appreciate the responses I've gotten to more specific and verbose versions of the question, but I have not understood how they can be helpful. Kind regards, Ryan
