Hi Rowland.
slave in my description mens backup addc, both of them. I use one addc as a
master and second two servers are connected to this master addc. So any changes
or GPO settings I make at master and they are propagate to slaves.
smb.conf at master addc:
# Global parameters
[global]
dns forwarder = 10.1.1.225
netbios name = ADDC1
realm = DOMAIN.COMM
server role = active directory domain controller
workgroup = DOMAIN
idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes
log level = 1 winbind:5 auth_audit:5
[netlogon]
path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol/domain.comm/scripts
read only = No
acl_xattr:ignore system acls = yes
[sysvol]
path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol
read only = No
smb.conf at backup addc:
# Global parameters
[global]
netbios name = ADDC2
realm = DOMAIN.COMM
server role = active directory domain controller
workgroup = DOMAIN
dns forwarder = 10.1.1.225
idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes
template shell = /bin/bash
winbind use default domain = true
winbind offline logon = false
winbind nss info = rfc2307
winbind enum users = yes
winbind enum groups = yes
[netlogon]
path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol/domain.comm/scripts
read only = No
acl_xattr:ignore system acls = yes
[sysvol]
path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol
read only = No
For sysvol synchronization I use rsync in cron:
*/5 * * * * rsync -XAavz --delete-after --progress --stats
/var/lib/samba/sysvol/ root at addc2:/var/lib/samba/sysvol/ >
/var/log/sysvol-replication-addc2.log 2>&1
