samba - Apr 2025 - Bash automation for Samba (high-availability)

Hello,

I developed a Bash script to automate the installation and
configuration of open-source software (i.e., launchpad.net/linuxha). I
want to make sure the syntax of this script is perfect so I can use it
as a teaching tool to educate people about Linux.

I need to know if there is anything misconfigured with my Samba syntax.

If you find a bug in LinuxHA, please submit a bug report to
bugs.launchpad.net/linuxha/+filebug.

By the way, I would like to get LinuxHA working with Group Policy
Objects (GPOs). Currently, my LinuxHA script does not support GPOs
because it is running in ?classic? domain controller mode. If I enable
support for GPOs, it appears I lose support for the dynamic Kea DHCP
server as well as custom Kerberos keys. I am not sure how to migrate
my current configuration to provide support for GPOs and still keep my
current functionality for Kea dynamic DHCP, dynamic Bind DNS, and
creating custom Kerberos keys. It sure would be nice if Samba
supported the migration of my OpenLDAP, Kerberos, dynamic Kea DHCP,
and dynamic Bind DNS configuration.

Kind regards,

Travis Bean

A link would be nice, I am not going to go searching for it.
