[Samba] Cloning from a backup: unable to reach any KDC in realm
Greetings,
This post pertains to a Disaster Recovery (DR) scenario on a Samba 4.8
server. The DR server was provisioned as a standalone host, on a
network isolated from the Production Server (PS).
The DR's /var/db/samba4 directory, which contains the private
directory, was then renamed and replaced with the PS' /var/db/samba4
backup. kinit now fails on the DR with:
kinit: krb5_get_init_creds: unable to reach any KDC in realm PRODUCTION
Will samba_dnsupdate --verbose resolve this situation?
Is there a way for the DR host to seize the KDC?
What is the correct procedure to provision and clone a DR host from a
backup?
Thank you,
